How to play the Bb chord

Put your ring finger on fret 3 of the g string, middle finger on fret 2 of the C string, index finger on fret 1 of the E string and index finger on fret 1 of the A string. Then strum.

Press just behind the frets, not on top of the metal bars, so every note rings clear. If a string buzzes or sounds dead, check that your fingers are upright and not leaning on the strings next to them.
