I take every gif I watch (which is A LOT) with a humongous grain of salt. But I don't let that grain of salt get into my eye and blind me to whatever truth can be found in what I'm watching. He is not any worse than any other poster here, and the people who claim he is just don't know what they're talking about. The demonization has gotten ridiculously out of hand.

you can try (42x100) or (4x2100). those are a little bit easier
or you can do (4x2450) like in lover lay down

I play it 4224xx, start out with just the 0224xx then go to that, much easier and sounds good.

you can leave the bottom two strings open, ie 422400.

i am usually a bit lazy about this shape and end up with 4x24

cool progression is to use that played with ring on the top pinky on the bottom and first finger on the 2 then play 5424 with pinky on 5 ring on A string, pointer on 2 and middle on the last 4.

incidently to another chord post, that's an Asus9

That chord used to give me hell when I was learning the freaking Spoon. But know it's no longer a problem for me to do it. It just comes with practise I think. (like everything acutally)
