Hi

Im practising power chords in F2 and Im having some difficulty with the correct positioning of my ring finger on the frets. It keeps getting a dull or buzz sound.

So I have noticed that the positioning of my thumb is generally in a relaxed, near vertical position at the back of the fret board. So I am trying to position the thumb in a more horizontal position at the back to perhaps give fret fingers a more rigid positon for the power chords.

It hasnt yielded any sigificant improvement so I'm curious as to what position the thumb is for other players for 6th and 5th string power chords. If it is generally relaxed vertical then I can stop trying the rigid horizontal.

Hope that makes sense and thanks in advance for any tips and advice.
