Thanks for pointing out that one out too. I've played through it again and everything seems to be in order. Congrats on the G13, that's a beautiful chord. Doh!

At the risk of sounding ungrateful, bar 2 is possibly transcribed wrong. Should the G and F on the high E string be played on the B string, as D and C? And I've just played this through and got the G13 without my usual cack-handed fumblings. Si. Thanks for your response.

Try bar 7 again, hopefully it will make more sense now. Sorry for the heartache, hope you didn't waste too much time on it. -Sean There is a trick, and fortunately for you it involves me tabbing out the notes correctly!

It sounds foolish to ask, but is there a trick to it? Or is it just practice and repetition? (I hope it's the former...!) Si.
