Drop D chord changes — speed in D (Dorian) New
A faster version of the D Dorian grid (D5d, G5d, A5d, B5d), meant to work on the accuracy of the one-finger barre at a driving tempo across all four chords, including the reach to the sixth degree.
Tips
Slow down as soon as the barre becomes imprecise (buzz on one of the three strings): in Drop D, speed should never come at the cost of full contact across the three low strings.
