Hi, Jimmy here!

Hello there, been clicking around for a while now on this site, but first now I'm thinking of actually writing in the forum.

I'm Jimmy, 16 years and lives in Gothenburg, Sweden. I've been playing guitar for about one and a half year now, and couldn't have more fun. Although, I have feeled for some time now that I'm not developing. Maybe you guys can help me?

I'm most into acoustic fingerpicking, that's what most fun to play, but it's hard to find good songs to learn.

I uploaded a video to easier show you how "skilled" I am:

Hopefully I'll have a great time here!

Welcome, Jimmy. Kirk has a ton of fingerstyle lessons here, complete with tabs and videos. I'm sure you'll find plenty to help you improve.
