Is that your new telephone number???
That's the normal way to play a 'D' chord! It's not really necessary to tell a guitarist to play 'F#' with a 'D' chord. He should know this...
Well, I've only been playing guitar for 38 years, so, what do I know. I'm a young buck compared to many here. But IMO, 200323 is NOT your normal D chord. X00232 is. If you want F# as the root, you say D/F#, which is 200232.
I have never in my life seen a D chord taught in any chord book as 200232. Either way, it's a D chord but you can bet they sound different. The open ringing A string is the way a D chord is played by most.
Of course, there are other ways to play a D chord but X00232 is the common open D chord.
All this is IMO, of course.
