Say Hi and let me know what you are working on at the moment! :)

Hey! My name is Dave Donoghue and I am a Guitar teacher from Ireland

The aim of these videos is to create Easy and Accurate Guitar Songs that you can play on guitar. I have many playlists that act as a collection of easy song lessons for beginners and intermediate players on guitar. These easy guitar tutorials contain open chords with strumming patterns! Whether or not you are into pop songs or you are here because you want to learn how to play easy guitar songs, I hope my collection of song lessons help you!

[EdgarImpact]

Thanks, this helps however now I’m worried I’m hindering the neck and over time it’ll be tilted

[brothermangaming]

ive been playing guitar for over 15 years and the base of my thumb still hurts everytime i play barre chords for extended periods haha. cheers mate

[bumpstockowner]

Thanks, but what do I do if my thumb hurts?

[zenkiprestoza]

I just found this now and actually my thumb acquired an muscle of years of playing without knowing the technique😑

[BrandonPoirierBlair]

I can sorta see how it works on acoustic and classical but it feel very awkward on the electric. I've been playing for almost 2 years and I have the barres nailed but if I have to play a song that is entirely barre chords i'm in pain halfway through and if I make it to the end I gotta put the guitar down after because i'm scared im gonna get carpel tunnel if I do it too much.

[arendsprive]

well how about if your standing with a strap on? how do you hold it on stage when you having problems then?

[abomidog]

ok cool but what if you're sitting in classical position?

[shocko]

Its great but then you pull a little too much and the pitch goes up
