    I haven’t played a guitar in MANY YEARS, and am going to start up again – plus learning a new style – SLACK KEY. I just watched your dexterity video, I think it is GREAT!

  • z0mgrugbyREUP 11 years ago

    My 4th, 5th and 6th string all sound incredibly tinny on the 9th fret. It doesn’t sound right at all. I have to start this exercise on the 8th fret to get it to sound anything like yours. I’ve tried tightening and loosening the strings to no avail. I can’t imagine it’s the strings as 1 of them is new and still sounds buggered.

    Do you guys think my guitar is broke in some manner or should i just put it down to the fact it’s cheap and therefore shit?

  • z0mgrugbyREUP 11 years ago

    If nothing else I hope these finger workouts will see some reward when I’m tearing it up on my Xbox!

    very good lesson mate :) 

  • Lanelle Devlin 11 years ago

    So hard! I think picking up guitar at 50 and early stages of arthritis are making this more difficult! Not gonna give up tho. Really great videos.

    @CxSteamPunKxD While these tutorials are AMAZING, I found (here on yt),some great finger stretching exercises that have helped sooo much.

  • mikki mouse 11 years ago

  • Karaisoke 11 years ago

    So I have TINY hands. I mean about the size of a 10 year old boy. I’m having a little extra trouble getting my pinky to do anything I want it too as well as using my fingertips on the frets. I don’t remember this being that hard when I was 14 and in guitar class.
