[@guitar-academy]

No problem . . thank you very much 😊😃

Another good lesson, thanks. Still smoothing out the REM song along side these exercises. Only issue is keeping the note ringing out on the five fret slide. It currently just seems to die before completing the full slide. Thanks for taking the time to put these lessons here.

[@guitar-academy]

Thank you for your feedback and I really enjoy knowing when people are getting good results out of the course. Getting the slight refinements perfect like the slide will come in time 😊

Could you recommend a guitar brand for a 72 year old, who is enjoying your tutorials immensely. I feel that I’ve outgrown my current basic entry level guitar. Best regards and thanks in advance Jacob

[@guitar-academy]

Sorry, but the only person who knows what type and feel of guitar you want is you. I would recommend you set a budget and visit one or two music/guitar shops and try out a few guitar until you find what you're looking for. 😊🤔

[@richardlorkingvincent9724]

hi, sir thank you so much I'm joyful. I found what I needed

Good job sir thank you

[@guitar-academy]

Most welcome, thank you very much 😊😃

[@BritishGeezer]

Thank you again for your excellent course. My guitar playing is definitely improving. Just a quick question on lesson 8 if I may: When picking out the melody with the annular finger, shouldn't we be using the little finger on the high E string?

[@guitar-academy]

From a contemporary point of view, yes you can use the little finger if you want. From a classical point of view you shouldn't use the little finger in a situation like this. From the point of view of the course play it as described because it's teaching you an important technique. So basically everything is right 😊😀

[@BritishGeezer]

@@guitar-academy Thank you for the clarification. This is why you are such a good teacher; I will strive to be a good student.

[@vladislav2471]

Yesss and the learning continues...

[@guitar-academy]

sorry for the delay . . . but I will keep them coming . . 😊

[@darrylbrooks3361]

Great lessons, I've been following along and have already added Autumn to my repertoire. I bought the whole PDF, but I can't find the music for this song and lessons. Month 9 ends with Everybody hurts, the song before this and Month 10 starts with Susan's Song. Have I missed something? At any rate, I'll muddle through - definitely want to learn this one. Thanks again

[@darrylbrooks3361]

Never mind! I didn't unzip that file. Thanks again

[@guitar-academy]

oh . . OK, that's an easy mistake to make. But if you want to make sure you've got the latest version of the fingerstyle course email me with a reminder of this thread and I'll email back the latest version. 😊

[@darrylbrooks3361]

@@guitar-academy Thanks, working on the first couple of bars this morning. First time, I've struggled in the course. Looking forward to getting this one.

[@guitar-academy]

@@darrylbrooks3361 It's actually a good thing when you reach the sticking point because it means you're being challenged and you're learning something new. (I've responded to your email, by the way) 😊😊

[@rolandvillanueva6347]

I want to learn more sir

[@guitar-academy]

I think we all do . . 😀😀

[@sayampraz8746]

sir, after lesson 6 there is no lesson 7, where can we get lesson 7 of this course?

[@guitar-academy]

If you download the PDF, lesson seven is explained in that. 😊 You should try and get Everybody hurts with the backing track (if you can) 🤔

[@ahrabass9903]

Why at 9:09 at the Am 0 and 0 but you played 0 and 1

[@havenneak8846]

I really wanted what's your have been done I won't forgot your login.

[@flaviotrejo6344]

Whenever I pick the b and high e string it sounds really “bright” and makes my pinched strings sound way too shrill. Do I just cut off the nail? The other 4 strings sound normal with my nails.

[@flaviotrejo6344]

I’m using a steel string acoustic by the way

[@guitar-academy]

That's interesting . . It might be the strings that are badly balanced. If you haven't changed strings for a long time or you've only replaced 1 or 2, it might be time to put a new set on. The tone of the strings changes over time. 🤔

[@flaviotrejo6344]

@@guitar-academy yeah it's been a while since I last changed them so it could be that. It does sound better now that I've practiced it more, guess my technique was the real issue. Thanks !

[@guitar-academy]

@@flaviotrejo6344 Well done . . it's really hard to control the attack on each finger individually and it takes some practise . . 👍👍

[@hughkrhowell]

Thanks for great lessons but I understood that the thumb should be used for E, A & D strings should I change this for this and similar patterns?

[@guitar-academy]

Yes, the thumb covers the bottom strings 'most of the time', however there are times where the melody overlaps the bass line (like in this tune) or the bass line ends up on the G or B string, but this is for future lessons. 😃

[@rishiraman998]

I am having a problem in 8 -excerise .please suggest me how to do pull off nicely.

[@guitar-academy]

do you mean exercise 6 ?? The pull offs should be pulled off to the side so you pluck the string as you pull the finger away. kzbin.info/www/bejne/naqxaWmrp71gadE
