Re: Open B Chord woes

I've been practicing this a little bit
(B chord, barring with the index
and pinky) and I usually get the bottom
5 strings correct, but the
first string keeps buzzing.

It seems much easier if I barre all six strings
with the index and use the pinky, ring and middle
for the second third and fourth strings.
Although it does seem to take longer to
transition to the chord using
this method

Is that fingering just as good?

Define good...

How does it sound?
How does it feel when changing from or
to some other chord.

There is no "best" way to finger anything.
Learn lots of ways. Use whichever way works
for the specific incidence of the chord.

Drive a car. Is 55mph better than 35?
Just depends.
