Beginner Fingerstyle Guitar or Fingerpicking (or sometimes referred to as fingerstyle) guitar might seem a bit confusing when you first try it but, , fingerstyle guitar playing will become second nature with just a little repetition (practice)!
A correct fingerpicking hand position (right hand) will use your thumb, index, and middle fingers for picking. In this particular beginner fingerstyle guitar lesson, your thumb will pluck the 4th (D) string and the 3rd (G) string. Your index finger will pluck the 2nd (B) string. Your middle finger will pluck the 1st (E) string.
In general and depending on what chord you are playing, different strings will be plucked. But in this particular guitar lesson, we feature a two fingered D type of chord (left hand) which is very easy to play for a first time beginner on the guitar. Sometimes your fingers may pluck or “hit” other strings with your right hand, but try to stick to the easy beginner fingerstyle guitar lesson that is featured in the video.
I have looked at 25 other beginner fingerstyle guitar lessons and honestly, this one is a lot easier. Just watch the video and play your guitar along with this basic lesson (great to practice with). You will find that learning the guitar is very easy if you take it in small sections and don’t get overwhelmed by trying to do more.

Just want to say a big THANK YOU for doing this video…never held a guitar in 45 years…you take the time to show people exactly how to do it…very informative and concise…I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks.
Awesome lesson loved it and it really helped. i can play chords and melody but my picking isn't so good
Thanks for this a big help for an old geezer. Appreciate you putting in your time.
I can't do the part when I have to hit the first string it keeps on coming out wrong?
thanks so much man. it's easy and it sounds beautiful.
Just bought my guitar and at age 50+ am really looking forward to learning from you. I stumbled across this video and it is exactly what I needed. Clear, concise and methodical. You are a natural teacher and I hope you can continue to help helpless, but hopeful, guitar students like me. Thank you, Bob! x
Wonderful instructor…im a beginner I want to learn more .thank you for such notes
I've been playing since i was 15 or 16 and I'm 40 now. I'm self taught other than the basic chords my cousin showed me when i wanted to learn how to play. Being self taught is an accomplishment but i kind of felt like a dog chasing his tail with my limited knowledge and not being able to read music (other than tablature) so i wanted to try something new to get that fire burning like when i was younger and you learn your first song that sounds exactly like the song you heard on the CD. I've messed around with "chicken picking", Travis picking, and finger style throughout my years but never really dedicated a lot of time to really sit down and learn it. I've watched a ton of YouTube videos trying to find an instructor to learn from and none really held my attention. Until now. This is the first videos where I didn't think "i'll never learn this" or "well this is boring" this video gave me that excited feeling of my youth when you start learning a new song. That feeling where you start out hitting the wrong order of strings and then it all starts to come together. I'll definitely be checking out your other videos. Thanks for posting these and keep posting them. Looks like I'm on my way to finally learn how to finger pick properly.
Thanks for making this 12 minutes not 2 like some others. Really easy the way you teach it.
I am just starting to watch this video it looks really cool I am used to the simple somewhat all time family recipe just strumming but I want to learn your part but just starting out I have a question which key are you in A
Thank you very much for this video!
