No prob dude, just message me what songs you want

Yeah, I'm confident in saying that all Coldplay songs use the thumb to play the low E string. It's not simple, but I've been playing for a year, and I've been able to do most of their songs, so really it just takes some time, but you'll get it. The most tricky part of these Coldplay songs are the damn tuning. I'll warn you right now that I've snapped a good number of strings (mostly the High E) doing these tunings. To prevent this, I started tuning with a capo, which isn't too complicated, just requires some thinking. Plus, if you need some chord diagrams, or what to tune for whatever song you're trying to learn, I've got most of em. You can look at Kapone's tabs here, but most of them are only kinda accurate. Zergio and Moses the Marshmallow here are masters in finding the right chords, but they're not here as often as they used to be. So just ask me, I'll try my best to help. And I might start making video demonstrations on how to play some of these songs.

So what are you asking? Just how to tune correctly? Or how to do thumb based chords?

After the part that Zergio put, I played this by ear, probably wrong though E---0---0---3---2 B---0---1---0---3 G---0---0---0---2 D---2---2---0---0 A---2---3---2---x E---0---3---3---x

Well in the video "jonny goes jazz", theres a big sign of "dr" strings those are great

I've seen your videos Jack,. You're pretty good, how long have you been playing?

Just wondering if there's any good YouTube channels with good tutorials on Coldplay songs. Starting to read sheet music, but still kind of confusing.

Are these guitar tabs 100% accurate?

Yeah I understand the question man, these songs do, sometimes they're not on the original track, but sometimes fro acoustic performances

Well I know what im doing, and when I take the capo off I check what the note is and tune it properly after

As some of you guys know, I've had troubles with tuning for my strings always snap, so to prevent or reduce this from happening, I just tune with a capo at the first fret. So far it works for me, but I was wondering if there's anything wrong in doing this.

Awesome man, but isn't there a Am in the end?

Yeah our child has come to life my friend!

the most perfect tab on Coldplaying just got more perfect

Does anyone think it's possible to add that cool design the En10 has around the soundhole?

Well, we can't all win. Ever.

Fuck! Oh well, I'll check out the GS330S. Do you think that one will be as good?

Whats the thing he has over his guitar hole (has a cool pattern thing)

Holy shit, if it is, I might have enough money to buy it this weekend, it's bloody cheap!
