There are times in which I played the chord and times when I absolutely struggle with it and can barely get 4/6 strings to sound off. It's incredibly disheartening failing over and over again. I have hotdog fingers 😂
Thanks I went from 3 muted strings to 2 this is a major improvement for me Edit: I finally pulled it off, now I can sing "Can't help falling in love" and get a GF Edit 26 04 20: Ey yo just letting you guys know, ya boy finally got A GF Edit 12 06 24: Guess it didn't work out, well... you live and you learn right
I actually don't mind F Maj so much, but I have to tell you I never heard anyone explain how to build it from an E Maj using the last three fingers and for some reason, that was so helpful! It made my brain feel a little more warm and fuzzy toward the F. It's so important to learn different perspectives and approaches to the same destination, because you never know which path might feel right or better. Building it backward from the last three fingers and then forming the barre makes it a lot faster for me. Thanks so much!
This helped so much in many ways. One- you don’t waste time talking, you just get into it. Two- your videos are as long as necessary. Three- THESE TIPS WORK!
For any beginners struggling here, It took me about 4 months to get this chord down all the way but I gotta say it is WORTH IT! With this shape alone you can play so many other chords just by sliding up and down the neck and will greatly expand your sound! (Edit): if it helps anyone, when barring with the index finger just keep in mind to put most of your pressure in the first two strings and the 6th only. No need to put pressure on all of the strings since your other three fingers are already playing them.
Here am I, bought my acoustic guitar without knowing anything about guitar, now on mad rush to get started. Thanks for your own experience on the guitar journey, now am inspired even more.
EXTREMELY HELPFUL TIP: Place the fingers for the individual strings of the chord first, then place the finger that barres the first fret. This is extremely useful and I got all of the strings ringing out clearly on my first try. Also, apply this tip to any barre chord. Place the fingers for the individual strings first, then place the finger that barres the fret.
The way I play Fmaj, FWIW - partial bar with the index on top two strings, like you show, middle on 3rd, ring on 5th, little on 4th, and then the crowning horror - thumb on 6th! I know a lot of people frown on using the thumb for fingering, but hey, it works. Plus that arrangement makes it much easier and quicker to change between C and F, and it frees the index finger for doing stuff on the top two strings.
this woman is cool and she is honest, because learning guitar can be a grind. but I gave it up of something like frustration and have gotten back into it again and am enjoying it
Great lesson simple and precise...Easy to understand and to copy...My problem is my wife who hates me playing guitar...I think she'll have to go...Many thanks for sharing 👍
I have used your videos to learn the Fmaj and Bmin. to be able to incorporate these two cords opens up new worlds, not to mention new many new songs. I thank you
I was really thrown (pleasantly) by your workaround of the mini-bar F major chord. I've been playing for 10-plus years and struggling with twisted fingers. I have NEVER seen this way to fret the F chord! Thanks so much and I will subscribe.
Its soooo nice you're doing lessons now, and you're so right about how to use chords' different voices which are dictated by a song, especially that F Major which I too just based my entire new original music composition performed on guitar that I do for book trailers and I needed that F Major chord and F Major key sounds for a new theme I did for the Fantasy character Dorothy Gale from the Oz stories/comic bks! Regarding my favorite/arch nemesis chord, I don't have one b/c they're all different and important and each have specific uses to create different feelings/emotions which is important for a composer like me who uses melodies and chords to really create emotions for stories, so I've come to appreciate all chords.
For F major, I learned it by barring the E and B strings, the second finger on the second fret G string, third finger, third fret D, then fourth finger third fret A. :)
You're great Miss Guitar Goddess 👍❤️ Your teaching very impressive ❤️ Thanks for sharing your talent/knowledge of playing guitar 🙏 it's really a big help for me/us as beginner... God bless you more ❤️
I just learnt the f chord(transition from different chords to f and vice-versa as well) and i am here, just to see how frustrated, I too was as a beginner😂 All the best people! Keep practicing, once you get it down, it'll be fun😌
This was actually the chord that kept us from playing "La Mejor de Todas" by Banda el Recodo as our first song because nobody except me and another mate from my class could play it. I actually spent like 2-3 weeks practicing every day, and still I sometimes struggle to get it done the first time.
Another way of doing the is the use the thumb on the first fret of the top string and then bar the b and e string with your first finger and then do the e major shaper with you're second third and forth finger. Its really good if you like to travis pick a lot
i have been practicing having a hard time so i search how F major sound like and i saw her explain how to properly put your finger its been days i have been doing it wrong thank you .
This helped me tremendously GG! Thank you! At first it was awkward and difficult but now I can bang it out without thinking. Love your vids keep them coming!
I always use the Fmajor7 chord for F cause I can’t really do the Barre. But thank you for this!! I am going to practice the Barre chords and get better at them😬💗
OMG I never thought in my life that I'd do it, thank you so much!! I was trying to do it for around a year now, and today is the first time i mastered it, thank you soo much this was really useful 🙏❤❤
The secret to learning the f bar chord is this , don't learn it as a beginner and do the open f and bar the 2 strings . When your ready , you will master the bar chord in weeks.
My music teacher gave me a short cut for this chord that’s sounds pretty close to the bar. It’s just 2nd fret and you lay your pointer finger over the first 3 strings. That’s it!
Oh!! I've been waiting for this😁. Just a quick request, could you please teach how to play A Whole New World from the movie Aladdin, I've been wanting to play that song,but am not able to?
I tend to do that partial bar way the most. I play the way where you pretty much play the bar chord but without the low e note second and I avoid the bar one because I'm weird and don't like it much lol
Thank you so much the last way you played the F chord is the way ill be playing it from now on. You may have just saved my guitar playing career. Just started taking lessons a month ago. And the F is horrible.
Oh wow. Guitar isn't as hard as I thought. I bought mine back when I was 15. Gave up because arching my fingers seemed impossible. Trying again at 27 and it's not as bothersome as I remember.
I can more or less play barre chords, but switching between them and other chords is super frustrating. Any tips? I’ve been practising but it isn’t getting any better....😕😕😕
Yay been waiting for this ❤️ earlier I watched your in my blood tutorial and I CAN PLAY IT!!! After avoiding it because of bar chords! Thank you so much 😊 ❤️
@Guitar Goddess. Hi my friend Glad to see you today 😊 🎶 ❤😍😍 How are you doing ? How was your day I love this chord but the shape is bar some times I feel hard but I live to play on Guitar 🎸🎸 ❤❤😊
@@GuitarGoddess yes my friend good to hear that I'm good my friend I'm practicing some strumming patterns on Guitar 🎸 and some bar chords switching it's little bit hard but I decided to never give up and trying my leavel Best ❤😊 I love your videos all the time aspecially your voice is so sweet ❤❤ and motivated me on my GUITAR journey 😍🎸🎸🎶
Which chord is your arch nemesis?
Probably my headphones chord, always tangled
F#add9
Eb maj7
I think now it will be easier to play every Barre chords also , except some of the chord which need some excess of hand stretching 😅
Love your videos all the time friend can you make a video on Strumming patterns 😊🎸
Thank you, thank you,thank you. I quit guitar sixty years ago, couldn’t get the F major. I’m starting again at 73.
Nice 💯
Yes! You got it!
You can do it man, I’m rooting for you
There are times in which I played the chord and times when I absolutely struggle with it and can barely get 4/6 strings to sound off. It's incredibly disheartening failing over and over again. I have hotdog fingers 😂
"I don't think anybody becomes physically immune to the pain of playing bar chords"
Inspirational
I do
I don't
But my fingers are numb now
my fingers
It don't hurt after time I promise, your hands might get a lil tired though
The chord is self explanatory F - chord 😂
My fingers reject that 😂
😂
Thanks I went from 3 muted strings to 2 this is a major improvement for me
Edit: I finally pulled it off, now I can sing "Can't help falling in love" and get a GF
Edit 26 04 20: Ey yo just letting you guys know, ya boy finally got A GF
Edit 12 06 24: Guess it didn't work out, well... you live and you learn right
Nice!! Definitely a step in the right direction. 👌🏼
Your Gf is gonna love your finger technique :-)
Pleaaaaaaaseeeeee tell me your age and how much time it took youu😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I'm desperate please help me I need to beat my enemy helllllppppp😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@mychoices9153 I'm 17 and it took me about 2 days to get a clear F sound, and 1 month to really master the transition
How do U get a clear sound?
I had all the strings muted😭😭😭
I know it's frustrating
SAME😂
Sameee lmao
Help meh😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Use capo....we don't need to learn bar chords
Your the only channel who doesn’t spend like 5 minutes rambling for as revenue
Your method of doing the partial barre chord saved my life, I have small hands so the other method was really difficult for me! Thanks a lot!
You're welcome! Glad I could help you. 👍🏼

@@itsmorphed6416 you know for some reason I never wanted to learn the open F. Idk for me just barring the first two strings feels awkward.
it is just magic to me when these people doing tutorials get all the strings to ring
0:04 this chord is the queen motherf...

I still can’t get this but this tutorial was amazing! I think my fingers aren’t flexible enough
Thanks! Keep at it. You will be able to play it eventually! 🙌🏼
Same, I can't do it at all. The partial barre is impossible for me let alone the whole barre chord
The way I play Fmaj, FWIW - partial bar with the index on top two strings, like you show, middle on 3rd, ring on 5th, little on 4th, and then the crowning horror - thumb on 6th!

I like the way you teach the F major chord. I almost got it on the 1st try. It's not as hard once you showed that it's like an E major.
One thing that I’ve had help me learn the f chord(still currently learning it) is practicing lower on the fret board and working my way up.
My good thank you for making this video .... I really love you for making this 😁💕💕💕
That helped a lot. I was in a lot of pain before I watched this video.
Great lesson simple and precise...Easy to understand and to copy...My problem is my wife who hates me playing guitar...I think she'll have to go...Many thanks for sharing 👍

i was able to do the F barre chord on my electric guitar, because the strings are easier to press down
The lower action helps a lot!
THANK YOU!! This is the cord that made me quit guitar when I first tried to learn.
This helped me tremendously GG! Thank you!
At first it was awkward and difficult but now I can bang it out without thinking.
Love your vids keep them coming!
I can't believe I got this right in the first go. I love your tutorials, NGL.
