      Very Sinead O'Connor at first then reminded me of Dolores O'Riordan. I could never have the confidence to do that but she suits it. Also the amount of times my hair has fallen over onto the strings when I'm playing is insane so I imagine it's a lot easier than having to tie it up whenever you want to practice 😅

    I suggest you be more patient when learning intermediate fingerstyle songs like River Flows In You. My advice is, you break the song into very small pieces and get down the first piece to its fullest to go to next one that's because I noticed you're too eager to get on to the next line so you mess up the rythme of the song! Hope this helps :)

      Play using a metronome with a bpm half as slow as the song as well. Play until you can do it multiple times with no mistake then increase the bpm by 5. Do this repeatedly until you play at the song's original bpm.

    Okay, I've definitely not been putting in enough effort. I've been playing for a year, took lessons for six months then stopped them for a bit when I was going through a very stressful time in my relationship them ultimately breaking up with him. Now that's finally all put to bed I've arranged for my lessons to start again from next week. I've still been playing but not really doing anything new, just playing songs I already know or looking up tutorials and if i can play the chords I'll play the song. I wasn't practicing my barre chords or any changes that I found difficult like getting to a Dm in time. This year I'm ready to put my all in and start learning to finger pick a little bit too. I'm pretty sure I've got the mini version of that exact guitar, looks like a Taylor GS, but mine is mahogany, although it's hard to tell coz mine looked really light in the photo so yours could be the same but I know it comes in rosewood (I think) too. Lovely guitar. I love mine, so light and portable but still loud and rich sounding. I do have a full sized guitar, I learned to play nearly everything on it but I find barre chords easier on my 3/4 sized Taylor

    @Lagger-HD Před 3 lety +6

    rest your pinky under the sound hole, you should force your pinky down there now before it becomes a bad habit that makes everything more difficult. Your whole hand is coming up every time that you roll on the strings, and that is making your changes take longer because you are having to find where your fingers are every time.

    • @johnheintzler4939
      @johnheintzler4939 Před 3 lety +1

      That, yes, but it also depends on how often you play. Even if you can't play any song or melodies at all, practicing difficult cords will help you out massively in the physical. Don't get frustrated when you're not able to do a C or G chord. It's practice. Your hand isn't used to do these maneuvers. But try them so you get used to it. It takes a bit of time, yes. But it's worth it. You will get angry because you f**k something up, that's normal. Stick to it and you'll love it.

    Why do people add "self taught" when in this video there is someone literally telling you what notes you missed. Misleading. No one is truly self taught with the amount of material available online. If you watch 100 hours of guitar lessons, you're not self taught.
