No, THIS is a moronic statement.

Would you care to articulate how exactly it is that a specific fingering alters the sound of a specific chord formation? That's right. You can't. Thanks for playing. Next in line!

Burn.

honestly, your fingering does not change the sound of the song. there can be no logical belief that because you use different fingers to play notes that those notes will somehow sound different. i dont care if you play a G with your pinky or a broom handle, it sounds the bloody same!

I'm SO glad I'm not the only one who plays with a broom handle!
