I wanna tell ya that....the tutor from which i am learning from...is too good....i have been learning from past 1 and a half month and he started teaching me from holding guitar,plectrum and then gave me few fingers excercices for both hands co ordination and then he started teachning me chords C,Ddim,E,F,G,Am,Bdim and told me how these chords are made...means by adding 1+3+5 th scale......
and told me few more chords.He also told me the differece between major and minor....that what exactly do they mean??
till now what i am able to do is ......playing all the chords clearly and able to shift C to D then to F and so on but not in exact rythem........
and also i am able to create my own rythem (on one chord only) through vamps and with combination of mute sounds also.....
I just wanna know ami going right...i mean am i icking it good or taking a lot of time playing and shifting chords??
