    Nice video, thanks! You might want to mention GAS, Gear Acquisition Syndrome... as an adult I have discretion over my income in a way that kids or teens don't. I truly admire the craftsmanship and designs that go into guitars and gear of all types, but have to resist purchasing more $$ guitars, thinking that will make me a better player

    Intelligence, discipline and pain threshold..... are the qualities required.........whether guitar, golf, boxing, engineering school or special forces.....success is part of simple universal rules.

    I started playing 3 years ago at 62 (and I started with GuitarTricks!). Finally starting to play barre chords and beginning the intermediate stage and I'm back with GT. Nope - I'm not a ringer. Just tried just about everything out there, including in-person lessons. But I need focus and step-by-step learning and GT fits the bill for me. Doing fingerstyle lessons and trying to learn 2-3 new songs each month. Looking forward to videos 2 & 3.🙂

    What is the guitar you are holding in this video, so I purchase the same? Classic, Acoustic ? How much should I invest for a first guitar!? I am 50, and I am a fan of rock music but also classic music, so I would be very interested to start with a classic guitar...no clue actually what is the difference between acoustic and classic guitar.

    • @garyheimbauer8810
      @garyheimbauer8810 Год назад

      Acoustic guitars are either nylon string or steel string. Steel string is used more in folk, country, rock, and popular styles of music. Nylon string is used more in classical music, flamenco, and Bossa Nova. Typically, the neck of a steel string is smaller and more comfortable, but the strings of a nylon string are softer and easier to press down. I would try some different kinds out at a local store and talk to a sales person! It's great for a beginner to start on Acoustic because all you need is the guitar and it will always sound the same! You also can't hide behind the effects and stuff. You get out of it exactly what you put in. Depending on your budget, you might want both an acoustic and an electric, especially if you like rock. It's really exciting to plug a guitar into an amplifier and hear that sound - it may motivate you and excite you. The guitar I have in this vide is a steel string acoustic (OM sized). Its made by Eastman Guitars in China.

    My fingers are a lil bit shorter than others so what should I do?

    • @FirstLast-nn2bj
      @FirstLast-nn2bj Год назад +3

      Move your thumb lower behind the neck, elbow in, and maybe push elbow out a little - it works for me!

    • @sonjamyburgh212

      Good question....I would also like to know 🤔

    • @GuitarTricks
      @GuitarTricks  Год назад +1

      We recommend the following: moving your wrist forward, buy a guitar with a thinner neck, and make sure you have perfect posture.

    i have been trying to learn for 13 years. i have a severe tbi. the struggle is i dont hear anything in my head. i dont remember rhythms or melodies. song structures. i love music. this started out thinking i could do this. but i was wrong. now is just trying to get my brain to work but that isnt happening either.

    Learning to play by ear you would have to have a lot of your favorite music to play on hand. You just can't go out and start buying all this music that you want to learn how to play. And if you don't have a computer you can't just start downloading this music that you want to learn or go a order books on different artists either.

    • @GuitarTricks

      Learning to play by ear is definitely not an easy feat!

    • @GuitarTricks

      Your fingers will stop hurting with time. Definitely is painful at first, ouch!

      Hello we would suggest signing up for our program or even a one on one lesson with one of our instructors: www.guitartricks.com/pro

  • @Don-6164
    @Don-6164 Год назад

    Yeah an absolute beginner or older player with a little experience would even know the chords. This makes me feel like im not getting it at all.

    • @GuitarTricks
      @GuitarTricks  Год назад

      Don't despair! Everyone learns differently. Keep at it and let us know how your practice goes.

  • @tuna22lm
    @tuna22lm Год назад

    My big thing is I don't have my own space to practice, who am I bugging, I know what it is like to listen to a beginner trying to learn how to play a instrument and the mistakes that we make and I for one get embarrassed for making mistakes have no confidence and that is a real biggy for me and who am I bugging, even though they say it is OK I always think they are just being nice but deep down they are thinking here we go again he is practicing again plug your ears, those are my big ones.

    • @GuitarTricks
      @GuitarTricks  Год назад

      Don't let your fear of what others think make you stop playing!

    No screw that get an online lesson with music theory. Sure you can play a/out theory but you won’t know why your actually playing what your playing.
