I’ve been working on transitioning between barre chords and major 7th chords (specifically the voicing that uses just the top four strings with fingers arranged in a diagonal).

Going from the 7th to the barre is easy enough, but transitioning back with confidence and accuracy is proving challenging

I’ve been working on that same chord change, and a problem I’m having is I can’t get my thumb up to mute the low E and A strings in time. So I just do my best to miss those strings on the first strum, and by the second strum my thumb is able to mute them
