When you play the C Chord, play the open E string on the top, it sounds really cool.
*Note: Josh Garrels uses two Capos.
One on the 2nd fret, covering bottom 5 strings, and one on 4th, covering bottom 4.
This allows him to do the following:
1st - 4th string relative to Capo on 4th fret.
5th string relative to capo on 2nd fret.
6th sting open.
E|-----0----------------|
B|-----------1----------|
G|---0---0--------------|
D|-2-------2------0--2--|
A|-5-----------0h4---5--|
E|-0-----------------0--|
Opposed to:
1st - 5th string relative to capo on 4th fret.
6th string open.
