    I had that problem but I was naturally using my pinky to reach the highest up string for some reason, are you doing that as well?

    If you’re having trouble with barre chords then try twisting so that you’re on the flat of your finger that is being used to bar the chord.

    ive always found with barre chords that my thumb and the arch between my thumb and index finger always cramps up if i put the required pressure on the stings i mean im doing everything in the video, i was wondering if i persevere with this will the pain stop?

    Yes, once the arch muscles get stronger, the cramp will stop.

    You’ll get used to it, it just takes patience and a guitar with low action.

    ahh… I got to learn these chords, but I cant get my fingers in the right position :S My middle finger is overlapping my index finger. I assume it is just practicing to get it right….

    isn’t it pronounced BAR-RAY? barré. there’s an accent. i mean, it doesnt really matter, just thought that’s how it was supposed to be pronounced.
