A very kind and happy Boxing Day to you Rob. "Feeling Groovy", by Paul Simon was the first song i learned in school, chosen by our 'hippy' chorus teacher, I think somewhere around 1974 when I was 11 or 12. Nice to finally see the chords ... we just sang it at the time. Love your introduction to finger picking using something besides Travis Picking. I wish each the best of years to come, love and music as the base and root!

I loved the Marc Bolan part and the Johnny Cash groove. When I first learned to fingerpick I couldn't do it slowly, which made me eventually overplay and leave no space. I often hear simple patterns (not that these are easy) and think how great they sound. Now I'm virtually relearning how to play slower with space and a regular pattern, so these lessons are great.

Happy Christmas, Rob. Thank you so much for your tutorials. You are such a great teacher. I had to give-up my guitar lessons a few moths ago because times are tough. I was sad about it until I came across your channel - it was meant to be! You're efforts are making my guitar playing so much easier and more fun.... In the future, could you do a tutorial for Proud Mary? Cheers. 🍻🥂🎄
@stringman5094 ай бұрын
Something I've a always wanted to be able to do finger pick 😮
@LMacNeill10 ай бұрын
The problem I have with picking is that the chords have to be ultra clean -- you can't accidentally mute any strings, because there's no strum to cover up your screwed up chords. When you pluck an individual string, if that string is accidentally muted, it's going to be glaringly obvious, whereas if that one string is inside a strummed chord, you've got the noise of 5 other strings to cover it up. This makes fingerpicking a lot more frustrating for a beginner who can't always hit the chords properly with the fretting hand.
@fennahrob693410 ай бұрын
Start with simple chords. Am, Em, D etc. practice the pick without chords too; concentrate on the picking and timing. It will all come together with practice. 👍🏻

Thanks again Rob for taking time to make these videos. I am just beginning to learn fingerstyle and these vids really help. I do struggle with getting my 2nd (ring) finger to work correctly, but I guess that is just constant practice and muscle memory. PS Love Chet Atkins!

Hi Rob - just curious what make and model your nylon string guitar is. Considering getting one and starting to do some research. PS - driving my wife crazy, but muting the strings to practice the patterns really does help. Great lesson. Thanks!

Just to say your videos are really interesting and useful. One question, I recently attended a party with neighbours and as a surprise I was going to play a few tunes on my acoustic guitar, I managed the first one but felt not quite right. I did get an applause though. I then tried to play another one and things got worse. So I hopelessly give up, I put it down to nerves. However, I then realised that the alchol I has consumed had effected my focus. I would not recommend anyone trying this with strangers it is highly embarrassing. 😮 I was wondering if anyone else had tried this? 😊
