My Girl, Regular Strumming
I really enjoyed playing the strong. Need to work on my clarity especially not hitting all the string when it's C, Am or D7, but this was fun.
Graduated From Level 2 Strums for near beginner.
Yeah, Pass level 2, Thought I was going to fail, especially switching half of a bar of C. Still tricky and will keep on practicing more. Burn like 2 hours, I was so frustrated but took a break then. https://nycguitarschool.com/graduate/
Learning Best Strum
Learning how the best strum with the song, Zoombie by the cranberries and did enjoy cord switching. Wasted hours but fun. Chords are, Em, C, G and D. Feedback is always appreciated.
Graduated Level 1 Basic Strum
I signed up to a NYC guitar school with a private tutor and unlimited online classes. They have level for each online class. Just past level 1 which was learning how to switch cords. I’m in level 2, learning strumming. Any feedback on my playing on my basic strumming is much appreciated. https://nycguitarschool.com/graduate/ If you're interested on graduated topics, I posted a link
The audio isn’t great, it’s recorded straight from my phone microphone picking up the sound of my amp.
My first live performance with my band! Songs we played : Our original song titled: Holdin' me back, Truth by Seether and Famous last words by My Chemical Romance.
Hey guys, long time no see!! I've been very absent the last few months for personal reasons but I wanted to share a very important moment in my music life right here where everything began! In june I had my very first live performance !!! I performed three songs, this is just part of one of them (this is a rock version of a disney song) . I'm the rhythm guitarist on the left of your screens ☺ sorry for the quality of this but it was recorded by my parents on an old phone lmao
Please no hate. If I did something wrong, Please tell me. Also, Sorry for quiet sound

Solo practice!

Had a late night practicing this solo for my first performance! I love how this solo sounds slowed down but I can’t wait to be able to play this at full speed!
This is pretty sloppy for my first video but I'm mainly uploading to get some feedback on the quality of sound and lighting. If anyone has any advice or cons...
Trying to change chords while strumming without stopping. CC welcome!
The goal: strum while switching chords. This is VERY rough, but I wanted to put this out there and see how it sounds. CC is always welcome!!

Chord Review

I have some work to do, but challenged myself tonight to just play the chords. Don’t think too hard about it, just play. CC welcome as always!! I hope posting these videos where I practice and make plenty of mistakes encourages other beginners to share as well. This is a wonderful community here and I’ve always had great feedback! I’d like to challenge other beginners to post as well!

SynGates School chord practice, beginner. Yay new guitar! CC welcome!!
From not knowing a single note to being able to play solos by my favorite guitarist, I’ve learned a lot these past two years thanks to the SGS! I never thought I’d be where I am today. I hope this video inspires someone to pick up the guitar or continue practicing. You can do it!
buried alive with the bedazzled guitar
I've been getting a lot of questions if the sparkly guitar is playable! It is very much so. I'm no where near Syn level yet so this is my stripped down version of buried alive. Thank you for listening!
