I don't suck now....4 months ago I can't even make a bar now I just rock( not trying to show off).....the point is... PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT! :)
I love this comment! You are absolutely correct! Practice makes perfect! Well done mate!
That's great man!!! I'm into rock. I mainly use Power Chords. Only one thing i disagree with! Practice does not make perfect!!! PRACTICE MAKES BETTER!!!!!!!!!!
congrats
how old are you?
@@oskheejauculan4616 I turned 16 3 months back
I started learning how to play the guitar back in 2020 . I remember I used to avoid bar chords until I realized most of the songs I wanted to play used that kind of chords, so I began practicing every day. After so much patience and practicing every day I have finally mastered how to play most bar chords. There’s still some things to learn but looking back at how I struggled back in 2020 I can see a real progress.
Fire
Thank you. It's very encouraging.
Oh my god im crying right now... I did it!! Thanks to your advice on the bony part of the index finger... You're the best
Yayyyy! So happy to hear! Keep it up! It gets a lot easier :)
I still cannot do it. My finger is way to soft. The meat part is more than the bone.
I know write
Nice work Alice!
@@stevenlee3240 saying it like that makes me wanna eat it lol😂😂
I AM avoiding them.. I transpose all the way until there are none
me too😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@benedictsamson1186 same… I broke my pinky multiple times on my left hand so my pinky like bends out and I can’t fit them in the frets if it’s with my ring finger 😓😓
Same here😂
Same here pinky is no good as it was broken numerous times. I thought of playing left but that seems super hard. @@stevenware1803
Today I worked on my bar chords for hours. I tell what helped me. Everything he said is true but I tried two different things.
One is I used just my my three fingers and not my index finger, I trained those fingers not barring at first then I added in my index finger later as I got really good with my three fingers. Still while I was practicing I just had my index finger straight up over the strings but not putting pressure on it. I did this countless times. I also picked middle finger to go down first just slightly before the other fingers followed. I'm learning the song by The Bee Gees to love somebody. It has a B major in it. I practiced going from the A major to the B major like two hundred times also using a metronome to see if my speed was increasing. And lt was over time until it became in perfect timing for the song . I hope this may help someone.. most of all you must keep going don't let it stop you from becoming awesome. Tonight was the first night I actually played the bar chord perfect and on time. Also dropping the thumb down behind the neck is deadly important. Best of luck to all this guy is also awesome.
Today you succeeded on or today you attempted on? Effort is a determined attempt that's done to cause things to work. That means succeed. Opposite of fail.
If you need more strength in the bar chord, I was told to pull my arm back and hold the guitar just a bit tighter to get that perfect pressure
Him: does a Barre chord* (Has a sound)
Me: does a bar chord* (DOESN'T HAVE A SOUND AT ALL) ;-;
I FEEL YOU!!!!!!
try on classical guitar, it's easier.. and help yourself by using the thumb on the other side of the neck to press harder
I feel you :,)
Needed a whole video to get me off my laziness. Thank you.
Bring it on, F chord. I'm ready. 😈
I've been avoiding songs with the Barre chord and I've been searching different ways to play the F chord but with this 😭😭😭 I just watched it and i finally got it after watching this video 😢 the one with the bony part really worked 😭 thank you very much ❤️
Lol same
Okay okay so you're telling me I haven't been able to do barre chords for 6 months and this whole time the only thing I actually needed to do was tilt my finger 15°...
*dies*
I am probably an intermediate guitar player (have been playing guitar a little more than a year, but I picked up guitar very easily because I have been playing violin for 6 to 7 years) and I suddenly have been able to do bar chords. The biggest piece of advice I can give anyone is to find a song you really like by your favorite music artist, and learn it, that is how I learned to do bar chords anyway.
If barre chords are consistently giving you an issue - especially towards the middle of the neck - I'd consider trying them out on a different guitar (eg a friend's or at a guitar store). I had the hardest time with barre chords before it eventually dawned on me that my guitar neck was warped. Long story short, purchasing a new guitar made a world of difference.
or get a luthier fix the tension by lowering the strings between frets
Thank you for this video. I have completely been avoiding barre codes and have stuck to finger picking for so long, but I think I should finally branch out and try again.
good luck :) I know you'll get there
5 tips to be better with finger picking!
Rajat Bhatt I need this video!
Beleive me , Finger picking only requires Repetition, practice , practice and practice lol
Im with you
A tip:play it as slow as you can and just play it over and over getting quicker but that's what helps me idk
Garrett Nogan has a Fingerpicking playlist on his channel.😉👌
David...I am 51 year old just picked up a guitar because my 10 year old wanted me to learn along. I have not put down my guitar. My barre chords...do suck...because my digits sucks. Love your stuff man! I wish I discovered you earlier.
Thank you Trung! It’s a whole heap of fun isn’t it? Keep it up :)
Bro you are a lifesaver, I have tried and tried and tried to get my brother to teach me more on the guitar but he never has time... i know only 7 basic chords and you wouldn't believe how many songs can be played with just beginner knowledge of the guitar but I have been desperately wanting to expand my skills and your video has helped tremendously! THANK YOU!
I've never avoiding barre chords... i always looking a song with barre chords, cuz when you played it in front of people it looks so cool
Notes:
Learn power chords first - as they are partial barre chords - start crawling!
Make sure thumb is behind neck (thumb is in the way mmm-mmm *sung like Nirvana*)
If you want it hard, not soft, use the side!
Close to the frets
Stop being lazy! Play that chord Mo-F!
Great lesson! 😁
Very nice video Dave, I really liked the explanation. It'd be awesome to have more videos on guitar theory, maybe on scales and such things (I've been trying to look those up but it's kinda confusing, however I'm sure you'd be able to explain those exhaustively :D). Have a nice day!
I've been playing for 6 years and no matter what I do, I just can't get the D string to ring out when I bar. I've tried everything you said. I've tried different guitars too. I give up
The power chord tip. Worked. Magic. ‼️ 😄 feel like I just leveled up! Haha! Thanks a million!
You’re welcome!
Yo thank you so much, I could genuinely never got barre chords down until this vid. The whole not using the soft part of your finger bit helped so much.
You’re so welcome :)
When I first started doing these barre chords, it's really frustrating, but still I learned them properly. Great and informative video, Dave!
thanks mate!
Thank you so much! I have been avoiding songs with Barre chords for so long but your reasons #3 and 4 help so much!
Thank you for this tips 😀 I didn't know about the power chords, i will work on it 🤙
This video is very helpful. Im just a beginner and i strugle a lot playing songs because i cant play bar chords, and this video taught me to practice power chords first and be consistent in the practice.
strumming video!! I can't strum in the right way..always stuck on the strings
Jacey YJ stuck or suck
Thank you so so much!! These tips really helped me a lot in developing my barre chords.
Yesssss thank you very much! The roll the index finger tip did it for me. Unlocked the mystery of bar chords. This opens a lot of new possibilities for me. Thanks!
I have been playing power chords wrong all these years. Thank you so much for these tips. Once I get the power chords down again, I know barre chords will follow now
Just upgraded my ukulele into a guitar and this was a struggle. This video was simple and clear and I doubt I'll ever have problems with it again thanks to you, so THANKS!
Love it man - thanks for the tip!
Amazing! You got me! Your tip of turning the index finger by ten to fifteen degrees totally let my barre chord ring now! Before one of my problems was that the middle finger was annoyingly muting the high b and now with the turn that’s not happening anymore plus all the tones ring out nicer. Still need to practise a lot but at least I know now it’s doable for me! Thanks man!!
This is the only video I’ve found that mentions where on the fret to place your finger and that tip has helped me the most thanks
I've been playing guitar for 30 years and decided to go back to the roots to see what I may have missed. I play all open chords on my acoustic and power chords on electric. I've come across bar chords on the acoustic and figure out an easier way, so yes I avoided them. I can't believe one simple thing I just learned has made a HUGE difference on the acoustic that no one never taught me, I always had my index finger on the middle of the fret and had some dead strings but now that I slid up to the fret bar OMG what a difference! No more avoiding bar chords! Thank You! 👍
Excellent. Number 1 and 3 are exactly my problem. Practice will now be a lot easier. Thanks
Thank you for being such a good guitar instructor.. I just picked up playing guitar (and bass guitar as well) at the age of ‘beyond 50’.. And Im eager to learn from my mistakes.. You are one of two instructors that I like to follow and learn from.. Thanks again..💪🏽🙏🏽🇩🇰
Excellent Barre Lesson, Dave!😃 power chords are a precursor to barre chords so I totally agree the must be used first. I believe in isolation excercises. So to strengthen Only the Index finger, I recommend placing then pressing the barre finger at fret1 and hold it
There for 4 strums acosa all 6 strings. The goal; place press and hold your barre finger on every fret between 1 and fret9. moving the barre finger up from fret1 the fret9 by placing, pressing, holding while strumming 4 times at each fret as your moving up to fret9. So start on fret1 and barre all 6 strings, strum that position 4 times the move up to fret2. Now you’re on fret2 so strum all 6 strings 4 times while
pressing and holding your barre finger at Fret2 and so on …..move up to fret3 and repeat the whole process to you reach fret9. This exercise will create a pathway of tension between your thumb muscle to you index finger; the muscles that connect the thumb to the palm and then to the index finger.
Thank you so much Dave for your tips ❤
I was just looking your video's for Barre chord tips! You must have read my thoughts :) Awesome
hahaha enjoy! hope it helps :)
Brilliant video! Thanks mate!
Thanks for this. Very helpful
thanks!!!!! omg great teacher.!!!!!!! I have been working on this for many years and you just made such great sense.
Thank u so much dear... I m quite emotional when u mentioned about the bony part of the index finger.
When I started playing the guitar, I avoided the bar chords and just did simple songs. But when I encountered a song I liked that had power chords, I struggled at first because my fingers are small. I practiced though and now my bar chords sound natural. Practice is the key.
Oh thanks! I'm learning by myself and I didn't know 3 of those things 🙈... Was very helpful. ¡Thank You!
Changed my index finger position to the more boney part like you said.... incredible results! Thank you!!
Really great advice! Thanks
Excellent video! Thank you!
Lets go to the next level.....Thanks Dave
Thanks man… sounds helpful. Gonna go give ‘em a shot
