Mine was Money by Pink Floyd. 8) . Either that or Enter Sandman, or Smoke on the Water... But I'm pretty sure it was Money.

I think it was "Fragile" by Sting. I learned the whole song on the high E string 'cause I couldn't play them all together :wink:

Smoke On The Water, but I learned it the right way with double strings in the key of G instead of using a open E string like I see a lot of beginners do.


Actually yeah, I learned it that way also. But I know what you mean, I've seen a lot of beginners play it using the open E...
