I’d never even thought of playing the Dm passages in the first position, but it sure works. Thanks for posting that.

I can take no credit for that. I learned it from Tom Conlon's video with tabs. Thanks for listening!

I always played it this way) But I usually transcribe by myself and always believe that the easiest way is the right one)

I usually play the D minor portion in the 5th position, and the A minor portion in the open position. I don’t think that one approach is better than the other.

I never thought of this variant) A minor part is the same pattern as D minor but string up, very easy to play and remember.
