Can somebody help me here. I thought the two finger chords from the lessons section of the cafe (see the link in my post above), were true chords that provided the required notes with only two strings fretted and the open strings provided the appropriate note. Contrasting that with double-stops where only two strings are actually played, a situation that frequently can give the key elements of a chord, especially in a group where another instrument will likely fill in the missing notes.
Did I misunderstand or does this thread vary between these two similar but different concepts?
