    Everyone saying they can't do barr chords. Don't take the easy way out because the chords are crucial for other songs. You will eventually build the strength if you don't give up. Nobody said it was easy lol

      +Hoaxla I've been asked by a few people about this group. I'm listening to The Less I Know The Better right now. Some groove driven guitar and bass riffs. Quite a trippy 60's feel with all that reverb on the vocals. I like it!

    Guys, it's not that difficult! I got my first guitar last friday. Now, after one week I can almost play half of this song. It's not perfect but I'm very proud of myself, bc friday was the first time I've ever held the guitar in my hand :) I was playing for about 30 mins everyday. Keep trying and you'll see some good results!

    Was I the only one who noticed he plays a completely different strumming pattern for G and A major then the one we said when he slowed it down? When I did DDU for both A and G it didn’t sound like the song so I’ve watched this video a thousand times trying to figure out the right strumming pattern. I think it’s DD for G and UUDU for A. If someone could please help me that would be great. Idk if I have it right or not.

    you did a better job than 3 other guys that tried to show me. Where did they fail? They wouldn’t tell me what strings to strum, and they didn’t have a clear shot of the strumming hand. So i had spent quite a bit of time getting very angry that i had tuned my guitar, formed the notes, but wasn’t getting anywhere near the same sound. Perhaps now that i can make it sound as it should i can get a hang of the strum pattern by ear.

    so I'm assuming its how you play it as a whole, but just a note, when going through slowly on the G and A part, you say down down up for both but when you play it whole, you go G-down down A-up up down up.

      @rhuttonaa247 5 років тому

      Just keep practicing. Thats actually the easiest bar chord to learn for the reason your only playing 5 strings and 3 of them are played sith middle index and pinky so your pointer finger plays the B note than just pinch the high E string into the fret board with the bottom of your index finger. With a little practice youll get it
