Hey, great video! Only thing that could make it even better would be annotations for which chord I'm learning…

Nate, I just decided that I'd like to start learning guitar today. I'm so glad that I found your channel! Your tutorials are very straightforward and clean! I'm confident that I will learn well and good form 🙂 Thank you!

Crazy drummer says:

Hello everybody, I could really use some advice. I learned all the basic/intermediate stuff (all open/bare/7s/5s/suspended chords, I can copy the rhythm of most of the songs, I know some scales etc.) and everyone is telling me: "Just practice!", but I do not know what to practice and how to make my playing better. I cannot transcribe music by ear (I can some basic chord changes like C-F-G and basic melodies, but nothing more) so how can I improve that too. Been playing for about 5-6 months and kinda stuck now. Thanks for help!

Thanks for video. Personally i still have some problems in making clean sound with the chords and also during transitions. As i beginner to guitar , one of the common problems faced is numbing of a string due to touch of a finger or similar. Do you have recommendations to get rid of those on that ?

Julio Jimenez says:

Dude I am so excited to start training with your videos. Thanks a lot. I haven't grabbed my guitar for almost 10 years and I was never the best player, but I can honestly say. I am pumped. Thank you!!
