How to Play This Chord
Position your fingers on the fretboard as shown in the diagram. The vertical lines represent the four strings, from the top G string (left) to the A string (right), and the horizontal lines are the frets. Numbers inside the dots indicate which finger to use: 1 (index), 2 (middle), 3 (ring), 4 (pinky). An X means don't play that string; an O means play it open. A bar spanning multiple strings means one finger presses across all of them at once — this is known as a barre chord.
Tips & Tricks
This shape spans four frets: index on the first fret of the G string, middle on the third fret of the C string, ring on the fourth fret of the E string, and pinky on the second fret of the A string. The wide stretch is the real test, so anchor the index first and spread the others into place one at a time. Keep your thumb low behind the neck for reach.
