Few comments on this piece
Seems pretty good arrangement but noticed a few minor things here:
1. At first I was confused to the tuning but the tuning of the strings here are what the strings sound like at capo 7, I think you should change it so it just says capo 7 with the normal tuning instead(could have also just changed the key).
2. Measure 31 (and measure 39) seem a bit weird to play for me personally although absolutely playable i would prefer to substitute the chord you have for a dominant 7 chord as follows just because the next chord is a fifth below and dominant chord sounds pretty darn close to the original but would make it a lot easier to play.
|----------------------|
|-3--------------------|
|----------5------------|
|-----3---3------------|
|-5--------------------|
|----------------------|
Though I can see why this might "muddle" the melody line a bit as well so not the best solution but a thought at least.
3. Measure 53 I think should be tabbed as follows instead (at least for me):
|--6-----------------6----|
|--3----------3---6-------|
|-------------------------|
|---------5---------------|
|------5------------------|
|--3----------------------|
This allows fret 3 to be barred, the 5 frets to be fretted with the ring finger and the 6 frets to be fretted with the pinky.
4. Measure 54 is also a bit difficult for me personally to play accurately at that speed of the original piece so I would probably change it in the following manner:
|---------------------------|
|---10----9------8----------|
|---8-----------------------|
|---------------------------|
|---------------------------|
|---8-----------------------|
Benefits are that the "important" notes are still there (melody, bass, and minor 3rd) and it is also easily barred in place. The drawback is that this requires a lot of fret hand movement.
Overall, a really nice piece and I enjoyed playing it, keep at it and if I said anything confusing let me know and I will try to clear it up.
Let's see: 1) Good thing you
Let's see:
1) Good thing you pointed that out. I didn't even notice those and I can see why that can be confusing. I'll remember to edit those in the future.
2)
You could also do it like this to make it easier, tho then the D wouldn't ring during the rest of the measure. Also I feel like with the 3-5 instead of 3-2 it doesn't sound "D enough" or whatever to me so I'm not entirely sure about that.
|----------------------|
|-3--------------------|
|---------2------------|
|-0---3---3------------|

Although harder to play I still think the "original" 5323 shape sounds the best.
3) The neck of my classical guitar ends after 12th so doing a barre chord at 10th (capo 7 3rd) is kind of hard. For my finger placement, I have my middle finger on the bottom E string, ring on B and and index and pinky on the 1st and 6th respectively but I mainly do it because my equipment makes me lol.
4)
Yeah the 5 in the middle definitely makes it a pain to play and cutting it off doesn't really effect the sound too much. I think you could also just barre the 3rd fret and achieve the same but I don't have the luxury to compare it to barring 8th with capo 7 with this guitar.
Anyways, thanks for the feedback! I'm new to this arrangement/tabbing thing so I appreciate you taking time to give some pointers/comments. I'll keep 'em in mind!
