    Chris D, Hoping to be advance in 2 years, will see.... any advice for a noobs who started a few weeks.

    Hi and welcome! My advice to anyone new to guitar is, don't stair at the fret board in confusion and frustration, it can seem overwhelming but it really isn't. Find joy in learning new things and songs that you like to play. Don't make the learning process a second job, instead look at it as a...

    Getting back to it!

    The way I remember it is B and E don't get Sharps. So if your guitar is tuned to E then you start with an open 6th E F F# G G# A A# B C C# D D# Then after that it's all octaves. It's pretty easy to remember if you coordinate major notes with fret numbers. E 0 F1 G3 A5 B7 C8 D10...

    So iv been practicing minor pentatonic scale, getting the positions down and what not. For the first time I was able to do improvision and it actually sounded really legit! Pretty excited about it. My next question would be, iv done C Major scale, pentatonic positions 1 - 5, what should be my...

    Ah ok, so I know how to play those. And yeah I saw that they look pretty much identical to the scale. So if im reading what your saying correctly, the 2 connection points seeing as how it's a Barre chord, would be wherever my third and fourth finger land on the chord If im moving forward, or...

    Getting back to it!

    Figuring out the positions took less time then I thought it would, just an evening. However now that I know them, I feel like bringing them together is going to be very tricky. And I feel like iv gotten to this point to fast, there has to be something I'm missing. Obviously I have only played...

    Getting back to it!

    So, Iv definitly made progress as far as scales go now I think. Since the lessons have been down here I found someone named Steve Stine on YouTube. He gives excellent explanations. You know it's funny iv dabbled in guitar for almost 30 years but I never understood where all the notes were on...

    Actually this makes quite a bit of sense to me. I didnt realise it was ment to look like you were looking down at the guitar so that's very helpful. I'll give C Major scale a try this weekend since I'm off for 4 days and see how it feels. I appreciate the help, thank you so much!

    Getting back to it!

    Thanks for the advice! So far iv been able to pick up I would say 40% of the song iv left off playing. I guess my ultimate goal is to be able to improvise on any song. Unfortunately I never learned to read music or understand tabs, I simply have been playing by ear. Seeing as how the lessons are...

    Getting back to it!

    Hello all! I put my guitar down for the longest time. Then I ran across Syns videos and it has inspired me to pick them up again! I got really frustrated trying to figure out scales a couple years ago. Hoping now that I'm a bit older and more disciplined that I can get back into it. I was...
