Her diligence has certainly brought her up to speed much faster an the average one year mark. I think she is at the 2-3 year mark.

[@matthewdeluge5214]

Thank you for documenting and sharing your guitar journey. I'm beginner at guitar and this was very inspiring.

[@polowanienapytona7295]

I can feel you:). It's my third year. After a year i had to heel my right hand. I was so tens by strumming. You are great!!!

I’m like nearly 5 years deep of first touching a guitar (acoustic) and this is definitely one of the best progress videos I’ve seen. Did everything In an appropriate order and timing and has ended up years ahead of a lot of people with quality and time. Using a pick is something I didn’t focus for most the time so far and I prioritised learning parts of songs I liked over learning anything the whole way through, which was not the right moves. Great video that hopefully helps others 🙌

[@ralphemerson497]

Some of the best guitarists, EVH, Zack, Slash, John 5, were practicing 18+ hours a day. Once you break the beginning threshold and begin making noticeable progress, it becomes easier and more fun. Making the switch from acoustic to electric makes a big difference also. Practice, practice, practice and more practice. Good job.

You're good sis, keep going!

[@yengkhomtolen3742]

Thank for sharing your one year journey with guitar..... I am also on the same boat for 6 months

[@btcstudio7537]

My friend really loved this, keep it up

[@DylansPen]

That's how you do it, very small steps at first. The best thing I read about learning the guitar, or anything really, is it is like peeling a piece of tape off of a table that is stuck down very tight. It takes quite a while to get your fingernail under one corner and then it comes right off. I am also self taught, taught myself to read music (sheet music no tab), and taught myself the notes on the guitar. The first song I bought the sheet music for and learned to play was Stairway To Heaven. At some point my family learned it was me playing through the wall and not the radio and they all flipped. That song is an intermediate song to play but it sounds just like the original. And off I went.

[@antoniovianaaa]

I'm amazed. You have put so many effort in a short span of time, and even achieved great results. I have played guitar for almost ten years, but i'm lazy, and my technique is bad in consequence, lol. You made me change my mind and start to practice again. Thank you for the video!!

Ty for sharing... 👍

Wow, same thing happend to me, I pick up a guitar the same reason like U, THX 4 Sharing :)

[@therapist6328]

My 13 year-old son played for 2 years, got pretty good, then stopped. One of my Telecasters is hanging on his bedroom wall. It gets played almost every day but unfortunately it is by me. Keep playing. You are doing great.

[@beardpwn282]

Wow ! What an inspiration ! Thank you! I’m 1 Month in…

[@simeyon]

so amazing! iv'e been also trying to go alone with Yousician and Guitar Tricks and also Ultimate Guitar a bit, I would like to get some guidence from you, seems you totally got it!

[@ironstrange8507]

so inspiring thank you... going to start playing in january when i get a guitar

[@KathMoskvina]

That’s fantastic! What guitar will you have?

[@ironstrange8507]

@@KathMoskvina not sure yet! i have to wait til january because that's when i start my class (my school offers free rentals for people who take classes). hopefully after the class i will have the budget to look around for my own :)

[@nadiaaraujo209]

I just love the talk through

[@kebman]

Hi, I've played guitar for 40 years. This is a great documentary!

[@suziegrahammusic]

An absolute inspiration!! Totally awesome 🤗

[@KathMoskvina]

Thank you a lot for your support! ❤️

[@johndelaney2957]

Excellent progression you've done very well.

[@pedrosandmeier1898]

Keep on, my Hardrocking Amiga, back in my time, we had no KZbin, the best way to learn was from friends and transcribing by ear songs from the radio, I liked your music choice, greetings from Switzerland

[@stefan014]

Hey. I'm a self taught bassist. Just like you, muse got me into playing bass, I can play hysteria, pressure and many others from them and I think I'm already decent. I think it's been about 7-8 months. So we can relate. 😂 You've done very well, I'm actually impressed

[@KathMoskvina]

Muse reveal the musicians inside of us ;) Rock on!

[@stefan014]

@@KathMoskvina haha yeah 😂👌

[@euphoriam4020]

I envy your diligence and I've been playing for over three years now.

[@martinguitar12346]

Like there is no way that i just found you randomly, 2 months of playing, having the same acoustic guitar and hoping to get an electric soon...

[@mikem2854]

awesome progress

[@NATE-gt2sz]

Very cool! Thanks for sharing.

[@coverstack6157]

Great job there! You've done very well 🥰 My son and my husband were also learning since i got them an electric guitar last June 2023, keep it up!

[@rodel71]

You're amazing!

[@stijnboeren3943]

I am currently in my 3rd month of acoustic guitar learning. It's funny because I have actually also recently learned heart of gold and house of the rising sun. Plus I am also about to buy an electric. Seeing where you after a year is probably where I will be too so very motivational to keep going, thank you!

[@KathMoskvina]

I am glad the video motivated you. An electric guitar makes all techniques easier than on an acoustic one. Keep practicing!

[@kobbarikola]

@@KathMoskvina lol dude now i am in the same boat - planning to buy a electric guitar - in my 3rd month now..

[@amalkorambeth9027]

This is incredible progress ❤️ really inspiring stuff

you're doing absolutely great. hope to see more progress and that you may never stop playing. you are awesome!

[@achyuta4206]

To smothly change chords in just 3-4 months is 😮

[@steggles667]

Well done, you’ve done amazingly well to improve so much over the space of one year! Keep it up!

[@littlewarcovers]

Great progress, you really did put a lot of hard work in, I also am an adult beginner eheh started playing january 2020 mainly covering songs from my Guitar master as to be fully motivate, but not as many hours as you :) well done, subbed to follow your journey

[@KathMoskvina]

Totally agree! It’s always great to learn guitar techniques by playing favorite staff 🤟🎸

[@Nuss-j4s]

How old is she and how old are you? I also started as an adult at age 24.

[@littlewarcovers]

@user-th5ui4ib3y I started at the age of 36 😀 keep it up 👍

[@StephxInfectionlol]

you are awesome!! I feel like I am getting nowhere with my playing. maybe someday i'll shred like you. stuff like this just doesn't come to me very easy. I know its challenging but i feel like i struggle learning more than others

[@KathMoskvina]

Don't give up with your practicing! At the very beginning you can be frustrated with your playing but you have to accept it because it is temporary. Every stadium guitar hero was a beginner at first. Keep practicing and you achieve a goal you set ;)

[@StephxInfectionlol]

@@KathMoskvina thank you so much for responding. Your video was very inspiring. I won’t give up. Hopefully someday I can play something without sounding terrible hahaha that will be my goal. Thanks again!!

[@Bitz00.]

distortion really does fix everything

[@rastatosh21]

awesome!

[@KathMoskvina]

Thank you!

[@slideographer]

Отличный результат, нужно продолжать! В начале можно прочувствовать всю боль начинающего гитариста. Соседи не прерывали занятия? =]

[@KathMoskvina]

Спасибо! Соседи - фанаты моего творчества :)

[@joris-francoispotet4617]

good job

[@KathMoskvina]

Thank you!

[@whitedog510]

Awesome. If you could go back, would you have started on the electric day 1?

[@KathMoskvina]

I would say yes because the strings are easier to hold but you need to resist the temptation to play with distortion for a while to learn how to control your clean sound first ;)

[@alirezafeizbakhsh2171]

4:12 for a tasty surprise. Thank me later :)

[@Nuss-j4s]

How you practiced ear training? Transcribing and figuring our songs after just a year is kinda impressive to me.

[@KathMoskvina]

At the start of my guitar journey, I simply transcribed straightforward songs I could recognise by ear. I slowed down a song, tried out the notes that matched.

[@Nuss-j4s]

@@KathMoskvina Ok, thank you! May I ask, was the guitar your first instrument or have you learned another instrument, or where somehow involved in music, before?

[@KathMoskvina]

@@Nuss-j4s I had few piano lessons as a kid, and I don't even remember the details. Therefore, I can say that the guitar is the first instrument I started to learn properly.

[@Nuss-j4s]

​@@KathMoskvina Okay. Thank you. I would bet that unconsciously it might have helped, even if you do not remember much, because your progress is really remarkable. I started out at 24 myself and I did not had any musical training before and you are much much better than I was after one year. Also, for me, personally, certain things were really hard to learn. Keep it up!

[@dewalddewet759]

I am not sure what self taught means. You mentioned Justinguitar etc, so I assume you mean, you did not get in person lessons. Anyway, well done, you sound rather good.

[@Kan_xe]

Hi, how old were you when you started playing? Nice progress btw, I started too this April with electric after playing acoustic for months

[@KathMoskvina]

Hi, I started my journey at 27. The hours of practicing are more important than age. Good luck with your guitar practice!

[@Kan_xe]

@@KathMoskvina I 100% agree with you! I'm 22 and thought it was late to start playing, but I didn't give up. Being constant for me it's the most important thing to do, practicing at least half or better 1 hour a day minimum is a good habit for faster improvement. Hope this video will inspire lot of people, thanks for sharing your experience!

[@kobbarikola]

@@Kan_xe i started at 31..

[@bestfriendsachinkalbhorshoes]

I am just starting out. Haven't even bought a guitar because I can't afford one.

[@KathMoskvina]

You can try finding a guitar at charity shops for a very affordable price. Just a thought.

[@ShadowFleX-92]

Russian accent is sooo satisfying!!!!

[@ss_whole]

How come you only have half a first name?

[@Mrkva22296]

is the progress really faster when you switch to electric guitar?

[@KathMoskvina]

Yes, because the strings are easier to hold and bend, you spend less time applying pressure to your hands.

[@Mrkva22296]

@@KathMoskvina thats why everyone wants you to start accoustic

[@KathMoskvina]

@Mrkva22296 if I understand your question correctly, In my opinion, some of the reasons are: - For acoustic guitars you don't need an amp to play. - Teachers advise acoustics because it's beneficial for fundamental skills (as I was told). And not every song can be played on an electric guitar, here I disagree because you technically can (it depends on the genre and style). - Some people prefer acoustic over electric because of their love for it. Additionally, we shouldn't forget classical guitars, which have lighter strings. Actually, it really depends on your ultimate goal. Personally, I have always wanted to play an electric. But if you love acoustic, go for it.

[@Mrkva22296]

@@KathMoskvina do you plan on picking up the bass guitar?
