Yes you are right. Most people aren't patient and want to make their dream com true fast. But then when they understand that the guitar needs more trying, they get disappointed and quit it. Some people are patient, keep tryng to learn to play the guitar and make their dream come true.
@@marialenaho5249 super spot on correct, lol. i had the same mindset, wanting my dream of being a rockstar and what not, and wanting to be a known well guitarist. thankfully, i snapped into reality.
See my mom forced me to do it, it was very scary. My stomach was hurting the whole day leading up to the performance and I didn’t eat anything because of the anxiety I had. But after I actually performed it was like I wanted to do it again, it was very fun.
As someone that have played privatly for many years, this is really good. You play different things, you do your exercises. Your progress will come faster and faster over time. Keep it up!
I'm only 30 seconds into this video, and she's trying a Dimebag song in her first month. I miss the feeling of listening to a song and thinking, I love it, I'm going to learn it. Now I listen to a song like "Walk" and think, well I can play the hook, but that solo is way out of my skill level. I'm going to watch the rest, of course, but I can already tell she's going to be great. She didn't put limits on herself.
Yess exactly don’t put limits on yourself but know your limits and what you can achieve or try to achieve in the moment and tell yourself that you will get it eventually!
Nice. Aha. Take on Me. My wife would get a kick out of that. She likes that one. Nice video. Your progress is fine. I think all of us more normally paced folks need to remember that many of these progress videos, especially a lot of the pre-pandemic ones, represent much-higher-than-average success stories. That's why they're on here. :) Also, with most of them, we don't see the rejected takes. That's what's so great about your approach. I like that you leave in the mistakes. It gives people a more realistic picture of what learning guitar is really like. I took a few group lessons in my first couple of years, so I got a dose of reality - from the ones who raced ahead of me in my earliest classes, to the ones I am so sad to report I discouraged by being a bit too good in my later ones. And it's not as if I was all that good. It's just that this is hard at first, and it is really easy to get discouraged. In person lessons from a real teacher can help with perspective on your progress, too, because they can give you feedback. But in the pandemic, of course, most of us have been starting, or attempting to continue, without that feedback, and have been relying on RUclips, or Fender Play, or Justin Sandercoe /Marty Schwartz, et al. All good stuff, but not quite the same as real time feedback from other guitar players. What you have done here helps to give an antidote to that, and give people some perspective, both by leaving in the mistakes, and by making good progress. Thank you. Nice job.
I left my messed up takes on the video because everytime I would put the video on to record I would mess up so a video of me playing where I don’t mess up was very rare but I also wanted to show that how it’s normal to make mistakes especially when you are a new guitar player. I watched a lot of progress videos and they were all so fast at their progress so I just wanted go show that not everyone is the same.
Awesome work! And that last zeppelin song.. I read it as " babe I'm going to leave you messed up a little".. which might be a pretty badass song title.. for Gwar
@@josezuniga3747 yeah, they are cool. When I was getting my guitar I was choosing between an Ibanez and this one, it ended up being this one but the Ibanez was amazing as well. I just didn’t choose it because it was more expensive.
Well I remember that I was really nervous about it and I didn’t want to do it. Also I practiced the song for a week without stopping until my hands formed calluses on the right spots for that particular song and I still couldn’t play it perfectly. I’m sure you are doing great and it’s not like I wasn’t a beginner at that time either. Just keep playing and you’ll surprise yourself.
I was really nervous when I had to go play at the pizza place to the point were I couldn’t eat all day but in the end when I got up there and sat down with my guitar and my teacher next to me it was really fun and I sort of blacked out and didn’t really see the people watching me but just my guitar playing. You know when you’re nervous for something and then you do it and your like “I wanna do it again” that’s what it feels like
@@krisimanasieva422 went along to a local open night earlier this week, and they were all very friendly and encouraging, there next one is Wednesday evening so that might be the one... I think I have 3 in my repertoire that I might be able to pull off.... (Chewing fingernails already)
I'm 2 months, 1 week in, and looking about where you were. Still trying to switch chords quickly, and screwing up a lot. You made great progress though!
Impressive 1-year progress!. You inspired me to pick up my guitar (first time in 2021) and start practicing again. I was on a good track but got bored playing the same songs. Curious, about how much time a day do you dedicate to your playing?
Well right now I’m not playing as much as I used to, mostly because I don’t really know what to learn but I try to stick with the 5 minutes rule. So I try to play at least 5 minutes a day and that usually makes me want to play more. I’m so happy I inspired you ❤️
This is such a different approach from my own 8 month progress like i really rushed things by playing a solo in the first week and it kinda helped me but now im really burnt out sadly only practiced by noodling cuz im rlly bored at learning new songs by that i kinda lost motivation :p
I also always tried to rush things and there’s times when I don’t feel like playing or learning anything new or even listening to music. For example right now one of my guitars has rusty strings but I haven’t gotten to changing them In months and I don’t want to play it, the other one is like Permian try out of tune cause I messed up when changing strings and the last one needs it’s truss rode adjusted so can’t play anything on it because it doesn’t make sound but I’ll eventually get the motivation to fix them up. Like I just finished playing the last of us part 2 and they play a lot of guitar in that game which made me want to play on mine so maybe soon I can get those strings changed. Anyways sorry for this long reply I judged wanted to share this with you because I tend to loss motivation very easily even though it doesn’t look like it in the video but that’s totally normal and good luck to you.
I know how play tons of intermediate/songs but sweet child o mine is one that I still kinda suck at It sounds like im playing way to hard and im not constant enough at always getting it right I can play medicine by tiny moving parts and its pretty fun
Play it slow and perfect, then speed it up. And don’t worry, I could play cliffs of dover by the time I tried to learn sweet child, and it was still hard for me😂. That alternate picking is tuff
Wow! And I practice House of the Rising Sun by my own on my classic guitar and it's hard because the F barre chord is too difficult. I have found the original this year and I want to learn to play it like my guitar instructor.
Thank you, I learned the song a week before the performance and I practiced it so much that my palms were calloused in the spots where the guitar was touching.
Thank you so much, I’m sure you’re doing great and you shouldn’t be comparing yourself to other people that’s what I used to do but now I’m happy with what I can achieve and I hope you are too 💙
I do recommend getting lessons, it hard to learn yourself when you don’t what you have to teach yourself. My lessons where cut short because my teacher moved and also COVID but I would say the first year 1 1/2 to 2 years
Yoy are amazing and I am motivated by your video and love it❤️❤️ can you tell me what is your practice routine and how much time you put to learn guitar in a day And did "fender play" help you to get better thanl you ❤️
I kind of just played whenever I felt like it, I’m the beginning it was like everyday but then as it went on it go to be every other day. Usually practiced for 5 minutes to 40 minutes. Fender play was fine at first but it’s not the best. You can say that for every online course, I just stop using it after a few weeks or less.
On the second month, you were already playing sweet child o mine, that is pretty fast learning. you said you were speaking bulgarian is that where you live?
Thank you but I haven’t taken any videos since the last clip and my phone deleted like 2 years worth of videos and photos so this is the only place where me progress exists
Not really, I just practice however much I feel like and I tend to do warm ups and after that I may play a song and do scales. I also sometimes like to just play whatever and see if it sounds good with a soundtrack in the back.
I'm just about there maybe a little farther. But I do not want to play rock and roll. Not sure what I want to play but it will be to lift people up and encourage them to faith in God. Guess I'll have to set a new standard if there is one. Lol
From all over the place, i search some on google, tiktok, RUclips (Paul Davids) is my favorite guitar channel, but my teacher printed some out for me and most of them are just scales or like difficult songs that like to play slow (for example - snow by the Red Hot Chili Peppers)
Im sad now. After 1 month you already played sweet child o mine!!!!! I have been playing for like 4 months and im not even close to be able to play that
No, i couldn’t play it in a month. I was trying to play but I just kept practicing it and with more practice it always gets easier to play so keep trying. Will power
Im so sorry Im commenting this late but honestly I went to the store and asked the sales people for a beginners amp. Anything around the price of 50-100 dollars will do you fine I think that’s about how much mine was. Just ask the people working there to help and I suggest buying your guitar in a store instead of online so that you can try it out.
Not gonna lie, at first I thought Walk was happy birthday in the beginning. Keep it up!
Omg 😆
same lol
Me too😂😂
Have a happy birthday boy!
That because it starts on the same notes
who else watches these because they don’t have an electric yet but are about to get one and just can’t wait
I used to do that all the time hehe
I did for about a month until a few a pair and bought a guitar

THATS LITERALLY CREEPY CUZ IM DOING THAT RN
And you were performing at 7 months...man that's so cool! It was nearly a year before I'd even let my girlfriend hear me play.
See my mom forced me to do it, it was very scary. My stomach was hurting the whole day leading up to the performance and I didn’t eat anything because of the anxiety I had. But after I actually performed it was like I wanted to do it again, it was very fun.
@@krisimanasieva422 Your mom knew you could do it, and she was right. I'm looking forward to watching your progress.
You learn really fast. I've been practicing two years and still stop if the family walk in.
Me tooo, Im always listening for footsteps
Thank you for showing realistic progress and not trying to show off :) I love this and I hope you're doing fab!
The first cover of Pantera made me laugh cuz it sounds like Happy birthday but you've learned a lot in just a year. Keep at it!!
Everyone keeps saying that and I didn’t hear it until I started reading comments about it
I love that you just went for these hard songs right off the bat.
I was so excited about getting a guitar I couldn’t wait
As someone that have played privatly for many years, this is really good. You play different things, you do your exercises. Your progress will come faster and faster over time. Keep it up!
I love that she had the balls to play behind her head after just a couple months. 🤣
Man I thought I was so cool, it was also so embarrassing because my mom kept showing it to people 😂
@@krisimanasieva422 🤣 Proud mama. Her baby's gonna be a rock star.
Girl i started guitar just 5 days before you as well! Amazing progress you inspired me to go post my 1 year video as well, and keep posting.
Just tell me when you post it so I can go and see it
Great job! This is something that nobody can take away from you. and you have many years ahead to enjoy it.
Aww that's inspiring, your playing is perfect now! thanks for sharing 🎸🎶🎵
Im so happy I inspired you, my playing is far from perfect but thank you
Great to see your progress with all the good and bad - this is what makes it authentic! Nice :)
Thank you
The rhythm playing by 7 months is hot.
Well done ⚘
Just been watching s few beginners vids - you progressed further in 4 months than the others in a year I think you could be a natural.
Good to see this generation still knows real music like classic rock and is learning to play it. Very rapid learning! Prodigy.
Haha thank you but I am most definitely not a prodigy
Your progress close to the 2 month mark is impressive I've had my guitar almost 4 months and can't play that
Wow that was great. I'm looking forward to your future uploads :)
Aww thank you, I never thought someone would like to see my videos ❤️❤️

Fair plays to play stair ways not even 3 months in takes some guts and determination , well done.
I’d give credit to my teacher, he was an amazing teacher and pushed me to try more things and practice more
Seeing others progress makes me happy.😍
Awesome work! And that last zeppelin song.. I read it as " babe I'm going to leave you messed up a little".. which might be a pretty badass song title.. for Gwar
theres a crazy amount of improvment in such little time!
Thank you
The playing behind thing was so sick I have to try that now!!!
I'm halfway with saving enough money for my first guitar, I can't wait.
Yay I’m so happy for you, tell me when you get it please!!! What guitar are you gonna get?
@@krisimanasieva422 an ibanez gio, since they're pretty budget friendly and look really cool

Nice video, your awesome really inspirational can’t wait till I can make this video in 3 months
Yay, I’ll be there to see it
Keep practicing you are going to be a good player in the near future Good luck and be confident
Thank you!
I have been playing for almost 4 months and I also have one song that I replay every month to see if I get better 😭
me too but for bass 😭 my go tos are sweater weather and heathens 💀
I'm 2 months, 1 week in, and looking about where you were. Still trying to switch chords quickly, and screwing up a lot. You made great progress though!
Thank you, keep going and you’ll be great at switching chords in now time

You’re too nice ❤️❤️❤️
I wish you all of luck and success, keep it up 🔥🔥It’s a really a nice progress🤟🏼🔥

@@krisimanasieva422 are you self taught? what are you using to learn.
When are we going to get a part two? I’m getting a little tired of watching one video for 2 years straight

Lmao, Nah I think I was nervous so I was taking out on the guitar

I found this video by spaming in the search bar the & symbol. I have never heard of these videos but I hope you are still shredding it to the bone
You thought you were cool... and rightfully so! Soo good!! Would you recommend getting lessons and if so, for how long? Xx
I do recommend getting lessons, it hard to learn yourself when you don’t what you have to teach yourself. My lessons where cut short because my teacher moved and also COVID but I would say the first year 1 1/2 to 2 years
Will you do a 2 year progress??
this is so cool!! you made me want to buy guitar even more now
i gotta ask, are u self taught or do you go with a proffesor??
I had a teacher for my first few months and then Covid hit and my teacher moved so I just watched RUclips videos or enrolled in free courses online
Yoy are amazing and I am motivated by your video and love it❤️❤️ can you tell me what is your practice routine and how much time you put to learn guitar in a day
And did "fender play" help you to get better thanl you ❤️
I kind of just played whenever I felt like it, I’m the beginning it was like everyday but then as it went on it go to be every other day. Usually practiced for 5 minutes to 40 minutes.

Highway tune but behind my head why? Why not :D ?
On the second month, you were already playing sweet child o mine, that is pretty fast learning. you said you were speaking bulgarian is that where you live?
I don’t live in Bulgaria I but that’s where I was born and that’s where I go during the summer
Well done krisi 💖
Excellent! How are you playing now?
What was your routine? Did you watch RUclips videos? Learn to read tabs?
Great progression ! And also thank you for making me discover Greta Van Fleet which is an amazing band that I didn't know at all
For my opinion good progress // how you get your Lessions ? // Internet or teacher?
Both are fine, but I think a teacher can help you more, you get to play with others and learn more
Nice to see a young woman have so good music taste. Nice playing to 😊
great job!
WTG, keep on it!
Keep it up! ❤❤❤
Where are you from...I listen but I can't understand your language?
BTW, you improved a lot.👏

why dont u do another one? ur rly good
Thank you but I haven’t taken any videos since the last clip and my phone deleted like 2 years worth of videos and photos so this is the only place where me progress exists
So good!!!! How did you learn?
By watching RUclips tutorials and I also had a teacher
Wow! This amazing solo of the song "Layla" is my favourite! If you learn it to play it well enough, it will be sounded so amazing!
This is amazing! How much do you practice a day?
I don’t have a specific time, how ever much time I want that day.
Nice video! Do you have a practice routine?
Not really, I just practice however much I feel like and I tend to do warm ups and after that I may play a song and do scales. I also sometimes like to just play whatever and see if it sounds good with a soundtrack in the back.

This is awesome! You should make some more videos 🙂
Doing way better than me, so what, who, or how did you learn?

where did you find your finger exercices ??
From all over the place, i search some on google, tiktok, RUclips (Paul Davids) is my favorite guitar channel, but my teacher printed some out for me and most of them are just scales or like difficult songs that like to play slow (for example - snow by the Red Hot Chili Peppers)

You should post more even if it’s just like update on your progress or just quick vids trying to do a song even RUclips shorts🤙
What amp did you start playing with? I want to learn but I don't know which one to buy
Im so sorry Im commenting this late but honestly I went to the store and asked the sales people for a beginners amp. Anything around the price of 50-100 dollars will do you fine I think that’s about how much mine was. Just ask the people working there to help and I suggest buying your guitar in a store instead of online so that you can try it out.
