  Im learning the 6 new chords in the beginning challenges. The first day I struggled with the A chord but today it rang clear no matter how I played it! Yes! Small win!

  Congratulations!

  The 3 finger A chord is pretty tough, lots of variations of it. I have pretty large fingers and I play mostly on a mini guitar so if I use a 3 finger method, it’s usually #2, #3 and #4

  To make things easier, you can simply barre the D, G and B strings with the index(#1) or middle(#2) and either mute the high E or don’t strum it.

  I love it when a chord I’ve struggled with all of a sudden rings out clear. It is such a relief and satisfying feeling. Congrats!
