For all the new guitar learners out there, if you are a girl, be ready to cut your nails because its difficult to play if you have long nails and also sometimes the strings seem to buzz. This goes to everybody, be prepared for some blisters on your finger tips. We experience pain after pressing down on the strings too hard when playing the fretboard, especially all of the fingers except for the thumb.Sometimes, the strings may also give you some cuts. You just have to play through the pain. All beginners fingers hurt when starting out, but believe me its worth the fun!!!
Hey!! I tried something new today. I attempted to play the song “Cry” sung by my favorite artist James Blunt. I added some special effects to the song using Garageband, an Apple Mac Application.
Though it took a lot of time to sync everything together, I felt great once the song was ready. Its not a perfectly made song though as I have made plenty of mistakes. My guitar goes flat at few places. There are some synchronization issues (lets not forget I am still a beginner) but what matters at the end of the day is that I tried something new and I am very happy and proud about it. Hurray!!!
A message to all the prospective guitarists out there, please don't hesitate to try something new. You never know it might just kick off and take you to a new level.
