Which chord has been the most awkward shape for you and why?

[navidsharif]

Who the hack in this world would dislike this? I love your tutorials,

[vimalajohn]

* only took me a global pandemic to get back to playing the guitar*

[aspenx]

I always think it looks like "D". Thats how I have always remembered it.

Thank you so much, i used to play piano but i said to myself i wanted to experiment, so i tried guitar this year .during coronavirus it has been very hard to communicate with my teacher he sends me videos and says you already know these chords . I have forgotten basically all of them and you re really helping me, thank you

[abramhernandez]

Just wanted to thank you. Follow guitargodess you will learn! After following Michelle for a few years the guitar becomes as easy as whistling a tune... I'm happy where I am at at playing. It just gets easier! 😎👍

[nipavithlani]

you teach the cords so well and just think u are the guitar goddess

[victorrodriguez]

I've literally been using my index and middle the other way for this chord and I tried your way and Jesus Christ, transitions are so much easier

[melodyomorogbe]

Thank you for all of this chords, and please i hope you will teach us all absolutely all of them, even the once nobody plays 😁😘

You are such a good teacher that cares a lot for students to learn and making it fun Thanks :D

[pneumaticman]

You’re hilarious AND a great teacher. Loved the “awkward date” analogy. 😂

[sanghmitraveer]

[maurabbit]

great, very nice chart and lessons, you really rule on the guitar, thanks for sharing all your playing, God bless you and give good health to you and your family.

Your engaging personality is why I am subscribed for help and enjoyment! The silliness is a bonus! You do make struggling with the guitar a more enjoyable experience, that is why we are all here. Thank you for sharing your time with us, looking forward to seeing your next video! Oh I cannot pick just one chord to list I am having a tough time with each one just now!

[prajwalkore]

When I strum the first string buzzes actually because of overlapping of fingers on other string, I am trying to fix it

[Kevin-bpv]

The awkward third wheel.I love this chord thankx the visuals and camera angles are excellent

[MaithriSanitgun]

I think of D as a triangle. I think of E and Am as chairs. Em is just two pals. C is a slope, G is a just G, A is a snake. Whatever works I guess.

[aryansaxena]

you're witttyy, thanks for teaching <3

[jupiterlight]
