Sorry if the information is wrong in the question but I’ve only started playing the guitar since Wednesday and I don’t know a lot about the theory side of the guitar. I’m 15 now and learning to play Smoke on the water by deep purple since the main riff in it is good and fun to learn for beginners, so I’ve been told but you have to cover the A and the D strings with your ring finger but when I go to do it I keep covering the G string too. Are there any tips or tricks I could do to stop doing this? Do I have to angle my ring finger more?
Chosen Answer:
It takes practice to get your pinger into the right position, I had issues with chord when I first started, and it just took practice to get them better. Here is a video clip of steve Morse demonstrating how to play the main riff http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-DjZXOSUuc
