Hi David...I am just looking for some clarification. In the test for LOA-L3, question 1.3, are you looking for us to enter only draw notes for the I chord, and blow notes for the IV chord?

Homer.

No, whichever note is an option for that chord... blow or draw. For example, hole 2 for the IV Chord the 2+ and 2 are options.

Shall bent notes and

Shall bent notes and overblows be considered for this exercise (ex. 1.3 on Music Theory)? For example for the V Chord, hole 3 can be used, but only as an overblow or bent 3''' (three steps bend). If bent notes and overblows are not taken into account, hole 3 is not used for this chord.

I left the bends out for the newer players (it comes into play later). If you would like to use bending, and overbending, go for it!
