Sounds promising :) Hope you can get rid of the buzzing. Thanks for the reply. Enjoy your guitar!
Very nice! I’ve actually also ordered one (surf green), arriving this week. So excited! A bit worried about the intonation though. How is it on yours?
Awesome, have fun!
Looks very cool! Is it nice to play?
I also have pretty small hands. It gets easier when you have the right thumb position (even for easy chords like D, to make chord changes faster) and build up some strength and dexterity (exercises in the link below).
This is really good read: https://guitaristnextdoor.com/how-to-play-guitar-with-small-hands/
It also goes into gear stuff (scale length, thin and narrow neck, low action, lighter string guage, etc). Don’t know what you have, but I would definitely recommend starting with an electric instead of an acoustic, unless you really only want to play acoustic or don’t want to pay for an electric. It’s a lot easier if you don’t have naturally strong hands imo
It’s not mentioned in the article, and you’re in early days, but when you get into bar chords I recommend “strength training” on the guitar. Trying to hold the Fm chord (on the first fret) as long as you can, several times, with rests in between. But of course be careful, don’t hurt yourself
Beautiful, enjoy!
I’m a beginner and currently self-learning through justinguitar and really enjoying it. I did think about taking lessons, but decided to wait until I’m more advanced after watching this video by Kevin Nickens which I think brings up some good points
Also enjoyed that one 👌🏻
Awesome ❤️ I got inspired and just became a patron too! Indeed, thanks for all the great work folks 🙏🏻
Someone’s gotta do it
As a beginner I’m currently following JustinGuitar and it’s been really great. Justin definitely covers a lot of general stuff about guitar which I like. He has some intermediate and advanced content too, partly related to jazz and blues. All free too basically. He’s a big proponent for learning by playing songs which is fun.
Jens Larsen also has some interesting content related to jazz
Very nice!
