Hello

Hello, I'm new to the guitar and to music in general. I've spent a couple of weeks learning chords and am ready to try some fingerstyle. Any suggestions on a EASY song for fingerstyle to start me off?

Welcome to GfB&B, and as to fingerstyle lessons, you've come to the right place.

But they are lower in the forums... I'd link you to one, but that would mean picking a favorite... and I can't do that.


Remember, wherever you go... there you are.
