  2. @Limatje @pkotof Ok, been a little while since I looked at Cannon in D I only have the LMG and Bonus LMG books on my tablet, I don't have the Fingerstyle course on it. The thumb plays all the bass notes whether its on the 6th,5th or 4th strings. On line 1, fret a D chord You would start on string 4, Thumb/4 which is open, then Index on 3rd string, Middle on 2nd string , ring would play first string which fretting hand is playing 2nd fret. Same pattern for the entire line. Thumb, index, middle ,ring Note that the chord on top, doesn't quite match what you would think the fingering would be, Make sure your fretting hand frets what's in the tab lines. F#m is fret 6th string 3rd fret, 4th string 4th fret and strings 3 and 2 are fretted at 2nd fret Now again, thumb on 6, index on 4, middle on 3rd sting, ring on 2nd string. Pluck thumb, index, middle , ring. Line 2 It's a "diad" , fret a D chord again, This time thumb and ring pluck at same time . Then index plucks 3rd string, middle plucks 2nd sting. Notice on D chord thumb plays 4th string On A, Bm thumb plays 5th string And on F#m and G thumb plays 6th string. That's what gives you your walking bass line Last line you have A chord, but fretted 5th and 6th fret with an open A. That's plucked all at the same time with thumb, index and ring. Last line creates a "3rds" from the A, Bm, F#m, Below is a in depth look.. the Pictures are from the 1st line 1st measure, 2nd line 1st measure, 2nd line 3rd measure, skipped 3 line and last (4th picture ) is the 4 line 1st and 2nd measures Picking Hand.. T=Thumb, I=Index, M=Middle, R=Ring Fingers to use for picking the Tab Lines at bottom not only show which hands to use for the Chord.. but which sequence to use as the picking hand to pick the strings. Note.. the Chord Name at the Top doesn't necessarily match what you'd think as a chord in the open 1st position.. it can.. but doesn't have to as found on in the D/F# that needs an open string String Names are in Red Fingers to pick with are in Blue Fretting hand is in black numbers for the fret number on that string The TAB lines at the bottom is how Steve wanted you to play this score. The music notation is only part and probably not very helpful as say in the
