No way! I jumped on here to watch you practice. So cool to see you tried out one of my tutorials, Eden! ☺️ You’re doing great on Day 1. Having experience from uke definitely helps starting out. Really all you need is chord memorization + transition practice. Hoping to see you continue on! Thank you so much for all of the wonderful things you said. 🤍
Too cool!! Loved seeing the perspective of you learning from Michelle’s videos as a total beginner 😁🤙🏽 Keep at it, looks like you got a really solid start!
The strings are tougher than uke. Your fingers will get your callouses on the end and then it won’t be a sore at all. Remember you don’t have to push down super hard to actually fret the strings. Strings like elixirs also have coatings that make them a little more comfortable. You already know some strumming patterns from uke so they shouldn’t be hard to get used to at all for you.
I started playing like 4 and a half years ago and now I honestly can’t imagine my life without it. You’ll like Barr chords eventually, they can be extremely helpful after you build up the hand strength. I hope you have as much fun with it as I have!
haha it will get a lot easier with time just with patience, passion and practicing! You'll start forgetting you're playing and switching between those chords and focus on your singing instead, it becomes so fun and rewarding!!
I’ve been playing guitar for a year almost, in 2 months I’ll have started playing a year ago. And I finally started flat picking on the song wildwood flower. And I have a lot of fun playing guitar
I don’t know how much you’ve practiced since this video but I would like to see another guitar related video. :) Even if you didn’t practice much the past months. Keep going and focus on having fun while practicing. ☺️
In January 2020 my company decided to send me to China. About 3 days into my business trip a guy who was responsible for safety came to us and said: "Please be calm. There is some new virus spreading across China, but there is also no need to worry it's not really a big deal". After this meeting, when I stopped screaming my company sent many people home to avoid this virus. When I arrived here in Poland I was so happy I didn't die that I decided to buy myself a guitar because learning how to play had been my dream since I was 15. At the beginning it was extremely difficult, but something changed after around 8 months and know I really enjoy every training.
Hi Eden! You're probably not going to see this because I'm late but I guess its worth a shot- I've been playing guitar for a little over a year now and I promise it get's easier. If you practice consistently your finger tips will gain calluses and you won't feel any pain. Also for when you are fretting the guitar (prob the same for uke) you want to arch you finger if there is a buzzing sound But you were doing really well for your first time in 3 years! You got thisss
This IS so encouraging. I love how real you always make your learning approaches in your videos. You never gloss over the fact that everything takes time, I appreciate your content so much ❤️
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 good job! You got a pot of the guitar chords right and you're sounding good, and the more you play , you'll build up calluses and you'll be able to play without your fingers hurting, I've been playing for 12 years now and I still feel like a beginner. Can't wait to see your progress, keep playing 👍
3 YEARS!!!! I remember that and it persuaded me to get an ukelele (a Donner concert 👍). Thanks, Eden, that means I'm 3 years older, lol 😂. Be well, Edith.... I mean Eden 😂. After seeing you, makes me want a guitar again, are you happy with the Donner guitar? I'm happy with the ukelele, just wondered if I could be equally happy with a Donner guitar
Hi Eden!!! Love your guitar video, I'm sure you'll be great at guitar if you continue. Tell your sister I say hi and good luck with her wedding! Much love, Viva Marie
If you want some good beginner songs then I would recommend almost any Tate McRae song except maybe dont be sad and stupid because they have a few bar chords, but yeah it's what I started off with
Fretting the chords on an acoustic guitar can be hard because of the high string action. If that's the problem for you then you can either remove the white bridge and file the bottom of it with an emery nail polishing stick and/or adjust the truss rod a bit to bring the strings closer to the fretboard. When I first started to learn guitar I got a yamaha fg700 acoustic guitar but the strings were high off the fretboard and the guitar was too big for my body so I didn't bother with it and instead got a fender stratocaster electric guitar. Then I got an another one and then another.... story of a musician :) It made it much easier to learn to play on the electric guitar for me. After playing for couple of years on electrics I got my dusty yamaha acoustic guitar out of the case, put new guitar strings on it and now it is much easier to play despite the still high action which I will try to fix later. Acoustic guitars are great for rhythm playing and electrics are best for soloing. The electric guitar for soloing is just different and lot more musical than acoustic guitar. For an amplifier I got a fender pro jr. 3 tube amp that I love and it can be used for apartment playing but there are better options with master volume where you can crank up the gain on the amp and keep the volume low. I also use a distortion pedal for my pro jr. amp for soloing sometimes. When making chords, your fingers might mute some strings and then the chord won't sound nice and that's ok. Overtime your fingers will become more perpendicular to the fretboard and you won't be muting adjacent strings. Also, barre chords are tough because your thumb muscle of your fretting hand might hurt and also because you don't know yet where to put your fingers to make the chord sound nice. Overtime you will find ideal finger position and will begin to relax your death grip on the neck. I can now play barre chords for hours without pain. My advice to everyone with respect to learning guitar is to just play the darn thing and everything will fall into place. You sisters are hilarious and I enjoyed watching your videos. Keep it up and good luck!
I haven't watched much RUclips lately, but this is so weird! I learned ukulele shortly after Elise taught you, coming up on 4 years! And I just picked up guitar this last month. We're on the same track.😂 I am planning on leading worship for a Bible study, praying I can do well!
Well done! I' ve started both a few months ago. A little thing: Try to strum on the body and not the neck-end, that's the louder part of the guitar in contrast with the uke.
I feel you….. I have had trouble balancing my ukulele and piano practice. I’m in High School, and don’t have much time to play either. You’re gonna make it! Good luck! The first song on ukulele I learned was You Are My Sunshine. I’m now working on Somewhere Over The Rainbow arranged by Isreal Kamakawiwo'ole. 🤗
That was fun. Don't skip the basics though. They are more important than you think. Glad you caught the a miner. I was holding my breath for some time.
yo you and I have the same guitar!!!!! I started self teaching almost a year ago, and now I absolutely love playing. If a 15 year old can do it, so can you, you go girl!!!! Edit: Also, here's a tip. When transitioning from Am to C, you only need to move your ring finger. Your index and middle can stay right where they are :)
I know you haven't put out a video in a while so idk if you're keeping up with it, but in case you're curious, the reason your chords didn't sound like the ones in the video tutorial you were watching was because in the tutorial, she had a capo on the second fret so that way her "A minor" was really a "B minor", her "G major" was technically an "A major", her "C major" was now a "D major", etc. If you think about the Capo as a tool that serves as like, the nut of your guitar but portable, it might make more sense. In the video, you're fretting a G major, C major, and at a few points an F major add 9. *BUT*, if you wanted to play an A major, D major, and G major add 9 with the exact same fingerings you used in the video but just shifted up two frets, the only way you can do that is with the capo because the capo serves as your new "nut" so everything gets shifted up two frets. So now, instead of your open strings being E A D G B E, they're F# B E A C# F#. If you know what a capo is then I'm sorry I just mansplained all this to you, but yeah, I just thought I'd include that. Since the key of Radioactive is A major/F# minor (same key really), by capo-ing the second fret you can play all those open chords in key which is what she's doing in the tutorial. I know your sister plays guitar, but guitar is also my main hobby and so I'm just happy to share any knowledge I have about it with others. Again, sorry if what I've mentioned was stuff you already knew, but if not I hope this helps! Guitar is fun! I hope you're enjoying it still but life's too short to do things you don't want to do so just keep on keeping on!
I'm currently learning bass guitar I've also forgotten about it, but this gives me some inspiration so I'm probably gonna practice my bass right now. Cool video also!
I recently got my own guitar and I am learning how to play too! I'm also really struggling with transitioning and I feel you when you say that pressing on the strings hurts XD!
You can do it!! I started ukulele too, and then I started guitar three months ago. Lots of chord shapes on guitar are similar to ukulele. And I really think the ukulele basics make guitar journey so much easier! I'm three months down, still a newbie but not super beginner anymore and I can play a lot of songs now. Can't wait to see your progress! Oh I can't do barre chords still😩😩
Hi! I've been learning to play the guitar for several years and I have one piece of advice for you. Maybe someone has already written it here, but I'm not sure. I noticed that when you make a G chord, you put your ring finger on the high E string (1st string). It's right, but try to put your pinky there. I think it's more comfortable and easier. And if you would like to use that ring finger, you can put it on the third fret of string B (second string). It's still a G chord. There are many ways to play chords on the guitar. I also have one RUclips channel that I could recommend. It's called GuitarZero2Hero. He teaches great and I think some of his tutorials are also suitable for beginners like you. Be sure to keep practicing, because the more you practice, the easier it will be. I'm already looking forward to your guitar covers 😊
I started learning to play the guitar February and the first song I've learnt is Hurt (Johnny Cash style) and just uploaded a video of me playing it. It is a really fun hobby to have
I have been playing guitar for 30 years. Try this please. put a capo on the 5th fret!! it makes your guitar into a low g string uke. just don't play the 2 low strings. Play only the 4 higher strings. From there play ALL the same cord forms JUST LIKE THE UKE. Finger everything the same and play your favorite uke song. This will get you started faster.
LOVED THE VIDEO!! PLEASE DO MORE GUITAR VIDEOS!! GREAT BEGINNER SONGS FOR GUITAR: In my Blood (Intro, has only 3 chords, and Solo) Do I Wanna Know (NO CHORDS) Love yourself (Intro and 3 chords) Cool/Sucker ENJOY
I haven't played guitar in so long that I almost forgot I even had one 😭. But this reminded how much I loved to play guitar, and getting my fingers hurt and I wanna go back to doing all that! ❤️
Hi eden Such a huge fan of you and Elise!!! Could you please do a video reviewing travel guitars ! I am learning uke and acoustic guitar but the guitar is to big to hold so I would love to try a travel guitar! I found this one on Amazon- 30 inch Caramel CB904G Ebony Wood Electric Guitalele Small Guitar Kit Beginner Guitarlele Starter Bundle Strings, Padded Gig Bag, Strap and Wall mount Set (Ebony)
I remember when my dad thought that the chords (and how your fingers were placed) played on guitar were the same on a ukulele, so he grabbed my ukulele and tried to play a song. After he asked if it was out of tune, I told him that the chords were very different. 😂
Yeah Eden! I can't wait to see your progress. Just look for songs that use open chords, sometimes called "cowboy chords", and you should find things within your skill level. Free falling by Tom Petty is a good one to start with.
Great video, Eden! I’ve been learning guitar for almost a year and you’re definitely better on your first day than I was😅 Anyway, here are some tips for easier transitioning: 1) don’t lift all your fingers. For example, Am becomes C by moving only one finger, so look for common notes in chords 2) I recommend playing G with 4 fingers. That way it will be easier to transition to D (one finger won’t need to move) Good luck! I hope you’ll enjoy learning guitar
I start learning/playing around the 4:30 mark for those who want to go straight to it :)
I love this Eden!
Ma too
You are the best courtney
Thank you, Eden!
Thanks! :)
👏👏👏👏👏👏 heck yeah
Elise right now: 👁👄👁
👏👏👏👏👏
Hi elise
I think that you are happy that your sister is going on your steps instead of you going on her steps lol
this isn’t wonderwall
Oli!!!
Were y’all teacher friends? Is that what this is?

Too cool!! Loved seeing the perspective of you learning from Michelle’s videos as a total beginner 😁🤙🏽 Keep at it, looks like you got a really solid start!
Thank you so much!!😊
Eden: “a little over three years ago”
Me remembering 2018 wasn’t last week:
👁👄👁
i haven’t watched the whole video yet but eden we believe in you, you can do this!!
thank you for the support!! :)

Yeah I got callouses and my fingers were sore and a quit for that
"Play smooth" they said.Go easy on strings,they will have a good sound anyway
guitar is really fun, i have my electric out right now, i played wildest dreams just now. taylor swift has LOTS of really easy songs
I started teaching myself guitar around a year ago, good luck to you :)
That's awesome! And thanks :))
Pretty good for the first time
I started playing like 4 and a half years ago and now I honestly can’t imagine my life without it. You’ll like Barr chords eventually, they can be extremely helpful after you build up the hand strength. I hope you have as much fun with it as I have!
As a guitar player super excited to watch you on your guitar journey 🤠❤️
haha it will get a lot easier with time just with patience, passion and practicing! You'll start forgetting you're playing and switching between those chords and focus on your singing instead, it becomes so fun and rewarding!!
Ah yes! Eden is going to shred for us!
I just started 3 weeks ago. It’s a struggle, to be sure. But it’s a journey. I shall persevere.
Good luck with it!! I've been playing ever since 2019 and i'm still struggling with learning. I have an acoustic! is that what you have?
yes, you shall!! :)
Good luck I have been playing since 20 18
I played 8 months ago and now Im on finger style. Now Im making more progress and my solos are good
5 months for rhythm, 7 month for solos and 8 months for finger style
I’ve played for over a year and I can already play pretty much everything I want to and even play a bit by ear, so don’t give up!
I think having already played a three years ago but you are getting the chord shapes quick that's good c:
OMG this is the best video ever, I love Eden's voice and her hair!
I’ve been playing guitar for a year almost, in 2 months I’ll have started playing a year ago.
And I finally started flat picking on the song wildwood flower.
And I have a lot of fun playing guitar
I don’t know how much you’ve practiced since this video but I would like to see another guitar related video. :) Even if you didn’t practice much the past months. Keep going and focus on having fun while practicing. ☺️
5:07 "A Minor!"
- proceeds to play C Major...
That was beautiful!!! 😍
I started playing guitar in 2019 to join the summer strummin series from Guitar Goddess 🎸 She’s a great teacher!!
In January 2020 my company decided to send me to China. About 3 days into my business trip a guy who was responsible for safety came to us and said: "Please be calm.

Guitar can be fun and I think you are just wonderful thank you for showing us where you are at the guitar
If you truly want to learn guitar, I would recommend the Guitar Super System by Tyler Larson, host of the Music Is Win RUclips channel.

A little tip to help transition from A minor to C major is the only finger you need to move is the ring finger.

You did fantastic for your first day
I learned guitar from Michele ( guitar goddess)and Cody's ( the groovy guitar dude) tutorials mostly so you are choosing the right path

Just look for songs that use open chords, sometimes called "cowboy chords", and you should find things within your skill level. Free falling by Tom Petty is a good one to start with.
from the Am to the C chords, just move your 3rd finger. the other two stay in the same place.
thanks for the tip! :)
Heyyyy good job!😀 I’m gonna start learning guitar soon hopefully :)
You can do it Eden! Continue on!
There's also a really good RUclips teacher - Nena Shelby. She's really good and makes videos for beginners. She also has a play along channel.
Great video, Eden! I’ve been learning guitar for almost a year and you’re definitely better on your first day than I was😅
Anyway, here are some tips for easier transitioning:

Hey Eden!! I love your channel!! :D
Let's hope that you can be more dedicated to learning guitar than I've been with bass 😔. Looking forward to the progress updates
