My name is Mychal (pronounced michael, just a , shall we say, *unique* spelling :) ) and I have always wanted to play guitar, but throughout school I made the choice to be in the select choir classes instead of band classes, and didn't have enough time to learn on my own. I still don't exactly have the time, but this is kind of my way of stickin it to the man! haha
My fiance actually just got me a guitar for christmas, (i was gonna get one after new year's anyway! :) ) and have been kind of trying to teach myself from websites such as youtube, and various other free lesson websites. They didn't really cut it for me, but before I went into one on one lessons and paid a couple hundred dollars a month, I thought I would check out some paysites, that way I can practice and learn at my convenience! I'm loving this site so far! Great beginner videos, and tools during the videos to be able to repeat parts of the video without starting it over, I love it.
That said, i'm wondering if it's normal for your fingers to feel, shall i say, FAT or too fat to be able to place them on the neck without touching other strings? haha i'm havin some trouble, hopefully it will get better!
oh and I have an acoustic guitar, it was the yamaha guitar that came with the gigmaker set, just in case anyone was wondering!
