Hi to Everyone!!!
New to messaging. 31 years computer tech. (go figure) Disgusted with guitar. Almost a year now and though I have mastered most chords with ease I am unable to pick or strum with any semblance of continuity.
I have five friends who have been playing guitar for many years and are not as adept as me but they can play songs better than me even leaving out chords that the song requires. This is what frustrates me and I hope through this site to gain some input that will make me a better player.
Eg: I can play "Stairway To Heaven" from start to finish (figured out by myself) but I struggle with "Margarita ville"
So to everyone again, Hello! I,m here to learn, to help (If I can) and to be a friend.
Dereck

Hi there 
I probably never listen to how other songwriters write their songs, I just write on using my own imagination. windsong

Welcome.
Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.

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!
