Re: Hey Guys Im Brett

Firstly welcome to the forum

We would be glad to help you.

Where are you finding that you are getting stuck?

I think after you have played guitar for this long the improvements you make are not as apparent. I find this makes a lot of guitarists demotivated.

Perhaps this is your issue?

Re: Hey Guys Im Brett

yeh that might be the reason. but everytime i pick up my acoustic and strum a random chord. i let it ring in my ears and i love the sound. its just im not findin any rhythmic solo artists i can learn from. if you understand what i mean.

What kind of music are you into? Perhaps people here can suggest some ideas of people you could look into??

Re: Hey Guys Im Brett

Hi Brett, you say you've been playing for around 2 years? One way that would be helpful is if you could learn the G Major Neutral Zero chord. It's pretty tricky to start with but seeing as you've been playing for a while you should pick it up in no time. I understand that the majority of songs that make it into the charts these days use it.


I hope this helps,
