I desperately want to learn fingerstyle guitar.

ow...i live in jamshedpur...can i do my classes only on sundays only...thats how i used to do when i used to go to carlton sir's classes...as in catching up the steel express in the morning and returning in the evening...i can understand those sheet music needs loads of patience ...it took me 4 hours to pick autumn leaves... Hehe...practicing for 10 minutes then again playing some metallica stuffs...

It really wasn't just the sheet music. I was getting better at it. It was more about actually attending classes on time, making sure I practiced the piece before I went etc. etc. It's a pity because it is something I regret. Anyway, this thread should die now.

ow i can understand how hectic are these staff notations...i still remember it took me 4 hrs to pick autumn leaves by nat king cole...gosh...it needs loads of patience...

People do magic with just two fingers(Thumb & Index), For instance if you've heard John Mayer, Mark Tremonti you'll know what I mean :D

haha nice

back to the thread
nylon would really help
but dont be put off if you use a steel string
either ways
exercises can be boring
so try this musical piece called romance/romanza (level: intermediate... but you already play acoustic so you wont have a problem)
it covers nearly all basic fingerstyle exercises
once you are done with this you should be able to play nothing else matters(intro) and other simple songs like nothing at all(keating) fingerstyle
keep practicing romanza to move on to harder pieces like fur elise and canon
once you achieve that finger style on hindi/rock/metal songs would be a piece of cake

Ooh.. i like fingerstyle so much.. Its so easy and will become a passion once you learnt it.. Finger picking opened vast possibilities.. I like to make a video for beginners and post it..
