New beginners lesson - Changing Chords
I just loaded up a movie lesson on changing chords, probably the most difficult thing to do when you're just starting out. It's a 10 Mb download, so be patient!

Great ... you like it! 
I've been trying to come up with some real beginners' lessons -- since we are called Guitar for Beginners dot Com -- trying to remember what it's like to hold a guitar for the first time. I called my old friend, incredible player (do yourself a favor and listen to 'Rollin Tumblin' -- you won't hear better than this) and great teacher 'Sharky', aka 'Lightning Boy' on this forum, the other day to ask his advice. He suggested I pick up my guitar left handed and see how it feels, which I did. !!! 
Thanks, Sharky! Now I remember 
I'll continue with more of them.

thank you Mr. Lorange
I'd just like to say thank you for this lesson.
I got a guitar for Christmas.
I'm almost 40, don't read music, and don't play any sort of instrument.. yet.
this lesson is what i've been hunting for for the past few weeks.
I love the lessons you already have, but I haven't reached most of them yet. this one is for me. thanks.
jw
i do plan on getting your dvd, but don't think i've reached that yet either.

I'm very sure those sort of lessons are going to be very popular with the absolute beginners. Good move Kirk. 
Just given your friend Lightning Boy a 'hot' vote on soundclick. Great stuff

Excellent stuff, Kirk. I'm really glad to see this and more when you have the time. I know it will be much appreciated. btw, nice ruts in the fingertips!
And wow, you actually own a plectrum!

Becoming a great guitarist has less to do with fancy moves than it does becoming a master of the basics and learning musicianship.
It's not what you can't do. It's how you play what you already know.
