Wow i naturally learned this on my own but actually thought its a wrong way of playing chord changes , this video showed me its actually a good thing..thanks !

[@dinogrgic3147]

samee haha

[@Concertinmyhead]

Same here but it's natural... It's called rhythm lol. If u play other instruments or have a good feeling for rhythm in general this is common sense.

[@elijahmonn3757]

dejandejo same with me. And I thought maybe it’s wrong technically. But it sounded smoother to me . So I kept going with it. I always try and play from the heart 😃

[@1349-o2m]

Same i did it all along but i thought it was wrong

[@tomr1056]

It's helpful when you're not very good but can be hard to unlearn when you want to really improve. If you're not careful you can end up always doing it, without thinking. Try going between the chord change you find sticky, straight back and forth again and again and again and within a few days, you'll be much quicker at it. Em11 is not always in the right key!

My finger positioning still need to improve before this will work.

[@NoNames-vw3bq]

I'm trying to just get the chord shapes down & how to move my fingers between the shapes before I even attempt strumming. That way I might stand even a small chance. Then I can also work on strumming without messing with chords to just get the hang of strumming.

[@maaifoediedelarey4335]

Pre-beginner here - I've watched a number of beginner videos to help me get started, and you're the first to pinpoint this issue so clearly. Your point at 03:30 , that the right hand should keep going, no matter what, meaning in the beginning you can afford to rather lose a little quality in sound, but not in the rhythm, to facilitate the left hand changing chords, is the key to this - no one can focus on 2 separate hands at the same time (at least not in the beginning), so to make the right hand constant, and using the last strum to allow you to focus only on the left hand in that moment, is exactly what a beginner needs to do. In time I'm sure it will auto adjust. Thanks for this excellent video !

[@larrygeetar9309]

This is a really important lesson for beginners. It's something that is often overlooked by teachers. If you were a bus driver, you'd need to get to the next stop on time and in time to keep your route regular so folks could count on you for that. It's the same when playing a song. You need to get to the next place on your fret board on time and in time. And it should be a smooth ride, not a bumpy one on the bus. Changing chords is the same thing. You need to get to the next one at the right time and in a smooth manner so the song doesn't sound jerky or mechanical. I talk to beginner students about this all the time and your vid is very helpful. There is a strong phy- sical component to playing guitar and it's the coordination of both hands, along with muscle memory. This is part of that component. Well done!

[@stevengalloway3849]

Wow...been taking online lessons for years and none of them have ever mentioned this. It makes changing chords muss less stressful and still sounds beautiful, thank you so much!

[@suneelkokate6852]

The great thing about your teaching is making complicated things simple to learn.

[@pauldentler7127]

I discovered this by accident when learning to play John Denver's Rocky Mountain High, but until I watched your video explaining WHY this sounded so good when I'm doing that song I would still today be trying to figure out what I learned from learning my favorite of all time song. RIP John.

[@bogiacdc]

awesome video! :) ... as a guitar teacher, i've been teaching this "empty chord" tip at my lessons for so many years with great success, so i can confirm that it actually works and helps the students... but i would add one more little thing: when changing between any 2 chords, if there are some fingers that are common to both chords, then you should not lift those fingers at the "empty chord" part... for example: when changing from G to D, or D to G (like in this video), notice that the 3rd finger plays the B-string 3rd fret in both chords, so you should leave the 3rd finger where it is, and only lift the other fingers... so yep, on the "empty chord", you will fret the B-string, but all the other strings will be open... another example: when changing from Am to C (or C to Am), only lift the 3rd finger on the "empty chord", and leave the 1st and 2nd fingers where they are (on the B and D strings, respectively)... in general: always look for any similarities between the 2 chords you're changing, and use them to your advantage, so that you can reach the next chord effectively, with as minimal movement as possible... it also means staying close to the fretboard, and not let your fingers "fly away" too far during the "empty chord" part... alright, that's it, i hope this helps at least a few people :)

[@JasminaRoxaneovic]

Bogi Nagy yeah, I use this trick all the time when encountering alien chords. Funny thing is that many guitar playing methods don't use it at all! (Not naming anyone here), but you see these books with chords and the finger-setting they suggest is making it extra difficult to switch from one chord to another. Always makes me wonder,does this method only work for certain types of music where certain chords never combine, or are they just making it difficult on purpose? (What purpose??) When I first started playing music, I blamed it on my hands being small, but by now, having learned to play four different instruments, I'm like, is this a conspiracy?? Putting students off with finger-setting that makes playing extra hard? It's not just with guitar that I started out playing chords in a way that I later realized made my life harder for no reason, its also for instance with piano, where you are supposed to have enormous, magical-stretch hands, and then one day you realize,this is ridiculous, and you wonder,why make it so hard?. I used to buy books for little children to get a more do-able way of playing. Anyway. Great advice, as you say!

[@carna-9501]

For Am and C you could just move your middle and ring finger up one string, same chord different finger placement, I've found it to be easier

[@xTwilightWolvesx]

Bogi Nagy This reminds me of the Andy Guitar tutorial! It’s very helpful. One thing I am wondering, though: how do I transition quickly? I find I’m having to think about where my individual fingers go for the next chord, and that takes too long. Will I just get better at it the more I play my chords? Thanks for any advice.

[@dmitrizaslavski8480]

@@xTwilightWolvesx it will be better with time, but try set all fingers at once.

I'm glad to know it was okay to do this, like many in the comments, I thought this sounded really wrong and bad and so I was looking for a video that could teach me a method where I wouldn't have to do this. But knowing it's okay to do it makes me feel so much better about my guitar skills (which are terrible still...)

Viewed this about six months ago as a beginner and it's probably the best tip ever. Using it all the time now without thinking about it. The best part is that the strum with the fingers in transit sounds great and even embellishes some of the chord changes. Thanks for that!

bro...I used to make the mistake of pausing during chord changes but this is very helpful!

[@wmfife1]

I learned a long time ago playing keyboard in a band that full chords not only weren't necessary, they weren't good music. It's more about being creative in their composition and knowing when single notes or two-note harmonies are best and how to construct them. Applying this concept to guitar playing I've selected "partial" chords that are easy to transition to other "partial" ones that are located so close by that only a one or two-finger shift is all that's needed to make the switch. Not exactly the same as what you're illustrating here but related. For example try playing After Midnight, I'm Crying or Boom Boom using barre chords. Not likely. ...MUCH easier just using the bare minimum for each and "sliding" across the fretboard to the next. This way you don't lose the "casual" effect of easy-sounding chord shifting that doesn't disturb the rhythm. Love your tutorials as they're easy to follow even for a perennial beginner like me!

maybe call it anticipation - you anticipate the upcoming chord change and get a head start on making the change. The sound you get reminds me of the way you can dampen the strings by slightly releasing the pressure on them by your fingers for a brief strum or two and get a percussive type of sound.
