Blues Newbie
Greetings all. Looking at this forum there is a lot of great info! I've just started BBG and coming from a couple years learning classical style guitar. I like a variety of music and got connected with Griff's emails that hooked me on learning Blues style. I do have a fair background with other instruments like trombone, recorder, flute but wanted to try something I can play chords on!
My challenge is getting all my fingers on the right strings and frets while coordinating my other hand to play the right string! Trombones only have one moving part to worry about!
I've been progressing well through BBG until getting to the barre chords!! I've read some of the posts and seems I am not alone here. Will take the advice I've seen and keep working on this, but keep it to about 10 minutes a session for now - guess I need to get some finger strength built up.
Also, still playing my classical guitar for these lessons as I wanted to build up a few tunes to try when I go to the store to check out guitars. Have already got the ABGU course in hand anticipating to get an acoustic guitar and keep moving along.
Enjoying it all so far.
