sure you can put a chord or notes of a chord on different positions if feel more comfortable with it. but the notes and the flow of the song still limit you to a certain area on the fretboard. its not like there are 100 different ways to play a certain piece.

Azreal, given the fact that you're an instructor, I can pose the question to you. I don't understand the arguement that you had with the other guy, however, I'm still a little lost. How can I tell when to play in which position. I know you tried to illustrate it, however, I'm new to this and I didn't understand it well (Sorry). Can you please tell me in lehman's terms.

Thanks in advance:
