@limburger – learn how to play a barre chord.

It’ll be the most challenging thing you’ll do on the guitar. And the most liberating. Honestly, learn to play an “e shape” barre chord and an “a shape” and you can play pretty much anything after that. I’ve been getting away with it for over thirty years.

Improvising is just playing stuff you’ve already learned, in little sections. Stick with it. Playing an instrument is probably one of the best things you can do with your time!

I’ve missed you guys.
I moved house last November. And things have been a bit weird with work and everything. But I saw the Spring Clean Challenge and figured it’s time I rejoined a community and started to “hobby” again.

How’s everyone else doing? (sorry I don’t have time to trawl the last six months or so of forum archives, so feel free to repeat yourselves).
