Hi Everyone,

Join me this Friday for the 69th weekly live Q&A.

Here's how it works: bring your questions to the comments below, the community forum, or save them for the live chat.* Questions can be about anything you want - guitar technique, music theory, gear, songwriting - your choice! Also, feel free to link a video of you playing if you have a technique question!

I'll do my best to answer your questions and give examples of how you can practice developing skills related to your question.

Keep in mind, you can always watch later if you can't make it live! Check back a few hours after the stream for a numbered list of each question and a timestamped link to each answer.

*Please note: you may need a youtube/gmail account to ask questions in the live stream, but you can watch without one.

Hi Scott! Looks like I'll be able to tune in live for this one! Regarding the C Shape. I'm having trouble fretting the 5th string with my pinky without muting the 4th string. Any tips on how to improve finger/hand dexterity? Also, if I'm correct, I can play the C shape without the pinky and still get a R,3,5 albeit inverted, strumming from the 4th string. Is that correct? Like if I bar the 5th fret I can still play an F triad? But if I strum from the 5th string with the same fretting, I would be playing a completely different chord? (Dm7?) If that is correct would the Dm7 be a suitable replacement for the vi chord (in the key of F). As always thank you very much
