I played the drums for 15 years , had kids , sold the kit to gain garage space and now thought time in life was right to get a guitar..hopefully teach the kids too in a month or so.... OUCH my fingers- -only learnt 3 chords, I hope it does get better or i'll have to get my drums back..mmm mybe i'll finally be a musician( and not just a drummer who hangs around with them,,lol, ) Any way hello to all and thankyou for this site.

Hi Judge. It gets easier. Give it some time. It will take a couple of months at least for the fingers to toughen up.

Hi Judge,
I also used to play the drums but was never any good. In fact I probably only knew the drumming equivalent of three chords. I'm glad I switched to guitar and I hope you will be too.

The GfB&B Guitar Slide Rule

Download the PDF of the 'Guitar Chord Slide Rule', print it out, fold it together and you'll have at your disposal a very neat tool that will not only show you all the positions for the main flavors of chords, but will also teach you a very important lesson about how the guitar works... It consists of a folded sleeve and six double sided inserts, instructions for cutting it out and folding it together are included with the PDF ... it's very simple to do, and if you botch it, you can simply print it out again!

Buy it now for only $10
