    Can someone please …
    Can someone please tell me why there are English subtitles when the guy in the video is already speaking English? I guess a simple answer is that they’re for deaf people. But if someone was deaf, I seriously doubt they’d be playing a MUSICAL INSTRUMENT.

    …so what about the open strings? isn’t that technically fine notes for first position? and what the is a “F string”? that is an e string; good tips but i think you should follow them yourself.

    I get that…have …
    I get that…have no trouble, but it’s like being able to navigate a keyboard, takes a lot of practice and finger memory to get to where you’re just playing the note without having to find it. I am not there with most of it yet. I can play a scale without looking at the fretboard, but I feel limited.
    I want to do something well in my life that matters to ME, screw the job, I got that down, and it’s not giving me the satisfaction that doing something creative does.

    I am finding patterns though. Or maybe just becoming more familiar with the fretboard. And my left hand is turning into a calloused claw. I don’t care if its not feminine.

    I think if someone …
    I think if someone wants to teach guitar, after they get thru explaining what the nut and the bridge are, they need to explain the open strings and how they relate to the piano. You can see more with music on a piano and translate to a guitar.

    I am a beginner,and even I know there is no C string.
    I can’t learn off these videos. I take classes, which helps, but I think if one wants to get “good”, one has to do a lot of learning by themselves, besides practice. I’ve had to really force myself to learn, even when I am tired and have worked 100 hours a week.
    This is something I want to do. I don’t want to imitate anyone or “play Clapton” or any of that.Play guitar like I draw, it’s me, it is what comes out of me, off top of my head.

    upyourface, I bet you never thought you’d hear this BUT I AGREE….

    Sit your down, memorize the notes. There’s only 6 strings, and 12 notes. A few of them have an identity crisis from time to time, and think they’re sharp instead of flat, but they’re still good notes….

    It is helpful if you start on Sunday, with C, and find every “C” on the guitar..Then Monday do “D”, etc.
