Interesting
I can’t get enough pressure on the bony part of my index finger to stay pressed hard enough when I’m using my three other fingers and so far my brain is defeated
hello i have the exact same issue did you find a way of fixing it?
Yeah so am I. Did you find an issue?
Just curious to all of yall, are your guitars Set up properly? If action and tension have never been adjusted it’s definitely worth letting a professional take a look, the difference in playability is huge and may be your issue.
@@Ben.guitar.coversuse the side of ur finger see if that helps at all
@@rainboat3288^ also try tucking ur elbow into your chest to straighten the wrist
Not sure i understand the instruction here. The idea of the weight of the arm to press the strings, just doesn't make sense to me. Starting to wonder if the action of my strings are to high.
Can be too high. Try to lower it and maybe it will help.
You are correct. The explanation is incomplete at best. Some contend that arm angle can be used to improve barre chords. Really, while the concept of rolling your index finger onto its outside edge a bit is helpful, the “secret” is the same as it always is: Practice. If you’re struggling, practice more.
Pull you hand towards you with your bicep when barring instead of squeezing with your thumb
@@greggorsag9787dumbest comment so far
@@ksarecords8099this is what he's tryna say I guess
Yeah that didn’t work at all
i cant, with just the index finger, the b and g string doesn't ring unless i squize with the thumb and push the neck out with my right arm pressing on the guitar
I don't have a problem with barre chords if they are on the 3rd or the 5th fret. But higher barre chords seem impossible to play.
Same here especially on F chord,i press my index finger down the third figer lifts i press the third one down the exact opposite it's frustrating
You mean up like 7th fret? You need your guitar set up correctly.
@Bigben141 the F is the hardest bar to do.
A tiny tip I just noticed for boney fingers. When your index finger cant quite squeeze a string or two for the full bar, you can kinda push or pull or finger back and forth. Itll feel like your trying to roll/ a pencil or straw up and down your fingers (like 🤌 -🫰) really fast but with the guitar neck/strings. Hope this helps 🤷♂️
my entire hand's bone structure HURTS
Now my neck is hurting!🤕
Keep your thumb on the back of the neck and keep your fingers parallel to the frets . 😊 " Keep Your Eyes On The Road ... "
Oh my days, finally, I almost played an A barre chord because of this vid. Thank you!!!!
My problem with barre chords is that when i try to do the chord my fingers are bending in ways making me confused l
Make sure the shape is correct. Practice in front of a mirror or front camera of ur phone. It'll be slow in the beginning, but you'll get there eventually
💯 I've had this issue for so long. It takes a mental leap to allow the shoulder to drop.
I never seen Guitar tutorial mentions the angle you hold your guitar; Don't Angle it! your wrist will be in pain... Plus, it'll be easier to do barre chords, if you don't angle your guitar..
But I'm a creep ahh cord shape
Didn't work....
When l was a kid back in "1980" l had my hand crushed between two pieces of steal after a snapped cable, and needless to say l have a hard time with Barr chords, I'm ankshus to see it work's 🎸
Hey by the way, how were the 80s?
Damn man you have it on the hardest difficulty but if you keep at it you will find unique ways to get around problems 🤙 I skiied over my own finger as a teenager and now my ring finger doesn't bend 😂 I thought I had it bad 😂 keep playing mate
The Good News is, l still gotta "hand ✋" ✝️
Really fuckin helpful buddy chords still sound sfucked bec without my thumb pressing I can get my index finger to press the strings hard enough
Lol no way in hell I could do this on my acoustic, and the action isn’t even that bad
I naturally do this because I'm lazy 😅😅😂
Don't play them: basic barre chords usually have double octives/fifths - finger the root on the 6th or 5th strings, and play the 3rd, 5th, and/or other elements of the chord on the remaining strings. Barre chords aren't ever NECESSARY.
Every time I sit down to practice my guitar…20 mins in my legs go numb
Please. I can barely get my pointer finger to the low E let along being able to bar effectively.
OH TYSM I CAN PLAY STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN...THE FORBIDDEN RIFF 😁
im done trying to barre an F on acoustic, when i can just play electric
It all comes automatically
Just to keep practicing to get used to it.
This just saved my frustrated ass thank you
I can kind of do it, but it sounds pretty buzzy. 😢
Problem is my fingers are super short 😂
The best way is to practice barre chords on an acoustic guitar (either nylon or steel) until they are clean. Then, playing them on electric is so easy 😊
thank you!
Use your thumb over the neck and frett the low e string.
My arm weights 500 grams 😀
Don't play angry
Who cares lol i am 55 years old been playing guitar since my 20th birthday and never stopped playing since.
I have never played any barre chords at all and i have been just fined i can play most popular songs on the chart and i am quite happy also made a few women smile along the way iiihaaaa
You're like my dad, played for decades yet still suck.
My springs get mute
No sense
one of many things i do..
fretting notes is not pressing on the strings, it's moving the nut.
Never even thought about this. Will try it for sure thanks!
Another problem is to change chords.
From F or Bb to other chords, I find it hard! I am not fast enough to change barre chords to other chords 😮😢
keep in mind that sometimes it's a issue in the playability of the guitar and not your fault
I thought barre chords were impossible before this vid. Thanks bro
String gauge, action, form and practice is what it takes in my opinion.
I was inspired so I've been playing for 2 hours
Now my wrist feel destroyed I hope this will help
Thanks I just learning guitar
Thank you 😂😅 I will have to try this!
damn man this helped instantly, thanks so much! I have been playing the wrong way until now, I feel dumb...
thanks bro
