Yeah, it should just be a mini barre. If I go back to my old habits, I fret it with three fingers. They're all crammed in there, with the middle finger being the top-most finger.

I've never played my A like that. I see Chris doing that, and he does it because he has a really hard time for some reason laying his fingers flat on the strings. He just simply can not play a C barred power chord, or B or D or any of them. I dont get but don't need to.

I can play it that way just fine - it's habit that makes me not do so.

The other one I'll work on is making my G chord without my pointer finger - as already mentioned.

He can't make a power chord? Like, a simple G 5th?

Lemme try something...

Or a G maj, like this:

If he can't play the first, he's kinda fucked. It's not that complicated - check his fretting hand position and wrist angle. If it's the 2nd he can't play, it's just some practice tha the needs.

Yeah, he can't play the first, he kind of plays the second, but the low root note G he just does not play
