    I struggled for 2 nights with this (the first one you showed) without much luck. Then just before I went to bed tonight I picked up my other nylonstring guitar, with lower tension strings (and slightly thinner neck), and lo and behold: I was able to pull it off almost immediately. Still needs practice, though it felt really encouraging.

    • @Gasoline85

    My hand just wasn't built for an F chord. My index finger curves inward. I've been playing it the easy way you show here -my index finger tip on the first two strings but that finger is literally lying on its side and unable to press the strings true. The barre technique for F that you showed here first, I've never tried it until now and that method seems to work better for me! 😂

    For anyone new checking in; Please just learn it the right way. It's perfectly fine to cheat it sometimes in a few songs but ultimately you're gonna want to have the correct one down. This is basically the base for other barre chords.

    Don’t agree that we shouldn’t watch utube videos for guitar . Some saying this even while themselves using the medium to promote their ideas. Every person learns different, and that even makes utube better for guitar because of the many different styles of teaching. One needs to try different ones until your fit is found. This video is useful and appreciated, but for example I am more comfortable with the f bar chord, although I am far from an accomplished player, only because a friend that used to play in high school, taught me that chord with c and g when I first picked up the guitar.
