Mar 22, 2018 at 13:28 comment added Darren Ringer @Tim I think the question in the comment above is whether it's better to try and move each finger as fast as possible to the new position, then strum once they're all there, or better to synchronize the movement of all fingers to the new position at once. At least that's how I read it. I can't say it's something I've even thought about while playing but this answer gave me something to work on.
Mar 21, 2018 at 21:08 comment added Epanoui Good idea for 1) learning to get the fingering right in a definitive manner, 2) requiring strong technique to support the force of hammering on, and 3) mnemonic reinforcement of the form.

Mar 21, 2018 at 17:49 comment added watchme Because I just tried to get as fast as possible to the new chord shape, with fingers being in the right position sooner than other fingers.
Mar 21, 2018 at 17:46 comment added Tim Of course! When a chord is played/ strummed all strings need to be ready together, otherwise it's a veerry slow strum!
Mar 21, 2018 at 17:34 comment added watchme So you mean one should not just change a chord but also try to place all fingers at the same time?
