I used to think that this was the best powerchord:
0 X X X
-----------
| | | | | |
-----------
| 1 2 | | |
-----------
| | | | | |
-----------
E B G D A E
…but after careful consideration I’ve come to the conclusion that this one is, in
fact better.
X X X
-----------
| | | | | |
-----------
| | | | | |
-----------
1 1 | | | |
-----------
| | 4 | | |
-----------
E B G D A E
In particular, it sounds awsome when played mute just across the lower G and the C
(not the higher G), then gradually opened up to the full powerchord.
I hope this settles this ugly debate.
