If you're feeling fruity at this point then note it is possible to put your thumb over the bottom E string to cover the 2nd fret to give you the F# bass note.


Tut tut. That's bad guitar playing etiquette John!

IIRC that was the technique first employed by Eddie Cochran [sp] back in the sixties to give the driving altenating bass line to his guitar riffs.
I tried it once and nearly broke my wrist trying to get my hand round the neck, never tried again since  :shock:

Oh and for the record my fav chord has to be Gm paired fantasticly with a C.

You all suck in comparison to my godly ability.

I can't do the thumb over thing either. Kills my hands, although barre chords in general used to as well. It's just practice.
