Thats a good question. Just how long does it take one to learn 3 easy "A,D & E" cords? If you look at how he plays the very beginning of this: http://www.guitartricks.com/lesson.php?input=11064&c_id=1&ch_id=6
it is not the same as lesson at the end where he has you playing it like this: http://www.guitartricks.com/lesson.php?input=11092&c_id=1&ch_id=6&s_id=442
This can confuse one when they wanted to learn how he played it to start with and not how the lesson shows at the end. The answer to your question would be yes I have the 3 cords down pat.

Really? For the life of me I can not get my electric to sound like a acoustic. Lets say if I took one of Lisa songs that she teaches her beginners on the acoustic, It does not in no way shape or form sound the same on my electric. The song was made for acoustic to start with or she would be playing an electric for this lesson.Originally Posted by: RickBlackerWhat are you looking for exactly?
Well seeing I posted a song on here that is not on this site then it says I am looking for some older rock songs like the Eagles. Something easy for a beginner like the one I posted. I played this on the acoustic while my electric was in the shop and again there was no comparison at all. My electric blew the acoustic out the water so to say.
[QUOTE=RickBlacker]While it's true that Chris had done most of the beginning lessons in section one and two, by no means does that restrict you to only asking him. You should feel free to ask any instructor any questions you like. I personally wouldn't ask one of the country guys anything about thrash metal but... You get my point.
Just feels wrong to ask another instructor that is not teaching the lesson questions when they were not the one teaching it. Make sense?
[QUOTE=RickBlacker]I'm really confused as to why you feel this site is mostly focused on acoustic.
Maybe I am missing some beginner lessons here? Out side of 1 & 2 from Chris is there another instructor teaching beginner lessons on an electric guitar here? Not the easiest site to navigate since I see other lessons posted on the forum that is not up front on the lesson site.
Now with all this said and done. I am not knocking this site at all and I think its a great site over all for someone that is in fact a beginner from scratch. Like I said before, I use to play a little many,many years ago but I forgot everything I knew until I started playing again. Some of it has started to come back to me with the help from the lessons Chris has. If not then I would not be tackling such a song as the Eagles "lyin eyes".
I am just busting your chops like your busting mine...LMAO I still think you can understand what I am trying to say never the less.
