23 in a minute day 2

thank you this was super helpful...excited to start my electric guitar journey in my 30s :)

No youtube video is helping me bro

I’m a month in and can play one scale. Man you’re talented.

horrible example of both amps, having played through a spark i can tell you for a fact they sound a million times better than this. still not great but theyre passable. it would help if you tuned your guitar.

Your playing is very good but your right hand is fully tensed. It is better to loosen pinky together with your ring and middle finger. This way you will play a lot smoother and with ease.

I'm a fucking guitarist not a producer

what software

Very inspiring! You made so much progress in just one month :)

I have been playing the piano for two years know, i know some basic music theory. (Chords and their variations, etc.) And I've been getting bored of it. I wanted to pick up the guitar for some variety, how long would it take me to get comfortable with the guitar? (About Stage 3)

My take away is do Justin first, then move into Paul-Justin hybrid approach.

What online lessons did you took first month? I've tried rocksmith some years ago, ended up only being able to play when I see those notes in front of my computer monitor :D

My favorite courses are the ones from Your Guitar Academy. I found them much more organized than Justin's. The courses are paid, but the video lessons are on YT for free.

Hey!! Fair play to you for sticking with it that alone deserves respect. I’ll be hitting 40 in a few months & I will also be embarking on a guitar journey next week when my guitar arrives. I’m really apprehensive but totally excited to learn & play songs for my wife & daughter. Keep rocking 🤘🏼🤩

Picking is like golf to me. It can never be perfected. It can only be played and (sometimes) enjoyed. Enjoy every plateau because it took many hours of work and effort to get there. Even the best climbers take rests on the way up Everest. The passion to play and improve, and the love of music have been the keys for me over the last 35 years. That always keeps me coming back.

You learnt those chords very quickly by the looks of it. This is one thing that holds beginners back for a long time.

Ehhh...I don't know about some of those breakdowns, particularly with regards to playing live. First off, playing in front of an audience is it's own skill set and it can't be practiced unless you're actually doing it. But just as important, you really don't need to be all that advanced. I play a lot of bar and brewery gigs with a bluegrass band. True, I've played mandolin for over a decade, and have spent thousands of hours practicing, but I am by no means an advanced mandolin player, and will almost certainly never be. Actually, none of us in my band are what I would call advanced, but we're good enough to play gigs competently and get invited back, year-after-year. I don't make a full-time living off it, but I do make several thousand a year in side hustle money. The secret about playing live is that, depending on the venue and what they're expecting, you really only need to be competent to play at that level and often, that level of competence does not need to be advanced.

I like the new purchase! Great job!

So I plug my guitar directly to the interface and I can change the sound of my guitar in daw?

This is all great advice based on experience.

As a lifetime musician, originally a sax player, Berklee on a scholarship and all, born again musician on guitar, my best advice is about technique and theory. Only learn what you need right now. Don't spend your time doing stuff other say you have to learn. Modes for example; if you don't get it, and it's not useful to you right now, that's for later or never. And if it's something like CAGED you're working on but not really getting it or using it, forget about it.

That's f'n awesome man! Congratulations you are quite good 👍.

What is the right way to disconnect my electric guitar from the audio interface?

Thank you so much for sharing this video. I just started Steve Stine beginner lessons today

waste of money doesnt help with sweeping alternate picking tremelo gallop picking economy picking

As far as time to complete. Justin Guitar. Can everyone who has finished Beginner 1 really do 30 chord changes with every chord combination of the 8 you learned at the end of module 7 of G1? Or play 5 songs?

I've been playing guitar for 17 years, I've played it more in the last year than I have probably in the last 5 years combined, every day I go through completely different thoughts with it, all in the same day.. Why am I wasting my time with this? I should just quit right now and never play it again. Then an hour later I'm going.. I should buy that super expensive custom shop guitar because I'm definitely getting better now. I think my best advice though, don't worry yourself too much on if your getting better or not, just try to enjoy playing it and nothing else, isn't that the entire point of a hobby anyway?

It appears the Udemy course is no longer free!

Thank you Sir! You just inspired me to never leave my house until I master my guitar!

4:36 But you don't have it switched to INST??? shouldn't there be a light on??

can some one tell me if the elgato eave xlr works for that?

Thanks so much man. I have played guitar for 31 years and seeing your progress really takes me back. I suddenly remembered all those nights of trying to play the simplest things...good work!

Do you hear your playing during recording?

Yes, great app, I must say. Sadly, I just don't use it. So BEWARE of these apps because they are a humongous pain in the ass to Unsubscribe from.

Respect .............Dont you ever stop ...........

✌🏼

Learning now at 38 with 4 kids, married, house remodel, and a demanding corporate job with different time zones. I just need some way to express art and creativity know what I mean.

I tried to do this with the same exact interface. After downloading the DAW It was just too fuckin hard to figure out. Recently saw someone's video on the interface he was working with made it sound so simple. It was a Volt 1, and Volt 2. I am thinking about possibly trying again with this Volt. Is that Focusrite still hard? Beginner wise.

Well done mate. What a difference in your playing in a year. Can I give one word of advice though. Playing with a metronome is really important.

I’ve been playing for about 6 months now and my skill has sky rocketed because I only play Hendrix songs and my 10+ years experience with piano (same notes). So imo if you have a little bit of music theory then just play the damn thing. I’m ALWAYS playing for hours on end. I work and play until bedtime every day.

I’ve owned guitars for 30 years. Used to think buying a new one would make me better, nope. It takes hard work and practice and PATIENCE. Unfortunately I let them sit for about 10 years without picking up. Now that I’m older and looking forward to retirement, I’ve started again, for about the last 2 years. I get frustrated but not as much the older I am, also it’s a journey that you can always get better at(we will never truly master, but get close). Thanks for the video, obviously we all feel this way from time to time! ROCK ON!!!

❤ great didint know T Móvel Ford. I remember of Joe Baiza ano starter to practice when 27, qnd even thought for little bit known in alt. music he is a jazz guitarrst

Hour is too long to he honest. I think consistency is key

I'm pretty much in the same boat as you but I'm a little bit older. My dad has been playing for 10 years and I'm about 10 months in now and that's damn good for a year man! Awesome actually. I know a few people that are year in and your way ahead of them by listening I can tell that you definitely put some time in

First time I tried learning guitar on my own I played for about 3 years and never got over stage 2 Now I finally got the courage to start playing again and I feel like I could maybe go on to stage 3 in another 3 years 😅

Do I have to grow a long beard to learn to play?

you should be a great player now, man. I started guitar in 2022, Mar 2023 to be exact. 26-month journey now. Still, not that fluent, not really a beast but I can have fun with friends while partying or play a few learnt-by-heart fingerstyle pieces. I really appreciate your video. Thanks for motivating lots of people, including me. Greetings from Vietnam.

Post something somewhere, brother. Let us know you're good. Just know that lots of us are thinking of you - hope to see an update soon.

I’m a month in and your videos have given me inspiration and the fortitude to keep practicing 🙂 . Are you still playing Luke ?
