Top 10 Mistakes Beginner Guitarists Usually Make
No one becomes expert in one day. People learn by making mistakes. I did too. I have seen other people making these mistakes too. I faced it in many ways.Using an app works often. If your phone doesn't have any problem. I have compared my tuned guitar (with an app) with another tuned guitar (done by professional). It worked!
Most common mistake. It took me a lot of days to properly tune the guitar.
When I was leaning chords, I noticed I was blocking strings with fingers. Especially with pinky finger,
Yeah! I have a problem with these stupid things too.
Like, placing fingers lying on the strings.
Some hold it straightly. Holding pick with an angle is better. And another mistake is, some hold the pick with finger tip.
Don't bleed your fingers for it. But at least press with minimum requited strength.
Happens mostly, from where should I read it. from upside to downside or downside to upside.
It breaks your hope. Usually learning chords like D, E major, A major etc. I started to learn chords with all opening strings. That's why I started with E major and E minor.
It depends on you. I was a dumbass. That's why I couldn't learn hard chords from the beginning.
Again, it depends on you. I couldn't make good sound by using a thick pick. Then I swapped with thinner picks.
It seems like kinda uncomfortable.
