Question:
"Onlythehunter asks, "Hi. I took acoustic lessons as a kid but never completed them, then as a teen and early twenties I self taught well enough to strum and write my own songs, which is my passion. I just bought a couple electrics (one with a temolo, one without) to try to learn to play it and also work on home recording with a newly purchased home studio system. I have two quick questions. First, I know some basics, although I am in the "learning scales is scary" stage. Do you suggest I start strumming my familiar chords on the electric to get comfortable, or to learn lead should I study power chords and scales, which I've never done? What's the best option? Second, one of my favorite songs is Springsteen's Tunnel Of Love. The sheet music has a chord notation of G5 with a slach through a 3. I assume it means a G5 omitting the third, but I can not get it to sound right or figure out what the chord is. Any ideas? Thank you very much, I am recommeding you guys to everyone I know.""
