I have tried a few online lessons but I struggle to know where to start. If I start in the beginners section I get bored quick because most of it I do know, chords, how to hold the guitar stuff like that.
So I am trying out guitar tricks, hoping for the best. Can anyone offer and sugeestions on how to get the most out of this site? Where would you recommend someone like myself start?
I was in a similar situation when I signed up to guitar tricks, I went through the guitar fundimentals 2 course then jumped into the blues course and they both helped me understand what I was actually playing on the guitar.
It wasn't that I couldn't already play guitar, I could but I didn't really understand what I was doing. I would suggest checking those courses out and see how you get on with them.
If you get stuck then drop Christopher Schlegel a message, he's a great instructor on here and has a vast library of video's covering most subjects so I'm sure he can point you in the right direction.
