Stricken, Smitten and Afflicted by Fernando Ortega is played in the key of Fm. Originally recorded in the sounding key of Fm, 'Stricken, Smitten and Afflicted' by Fernando Ortega is best approached with a Capo placed on Fret 1, enabling guitarists to execute friendly Em shapes while fully preserving the studio pitch. The Fm barre chord can be voiced as a partial three-string triad on upper strings to preserve momentum and prevent fingertip strain while practicing. The primary progression challenge lies in switching between Fm and D#: keep your fingers hovering close to the fretboard rather than flying off between changes. Set your metronome at an initial practice tempo of 79 BPM in 4/4 time to master the '↓ - ↓ ↑ - ↑ ↓ ↑' strumming groove, emphasizing steady downstrokes on beats one and three before accelerating toward the studio speed of 110 BPM.
