Jonathan replied to the topic Master chord sheet request. in the forum Questions & Struggles 6 years, 3 months ago
Hey Cheryl, that’s a great question. This is something I’ve actually had on my list of things to create. But I haven’t been able to get around to it yet, though it is coming.
In the meantime, you could google “most popular chords on guitar” or something like that, and you should be able to find something relatively useful:)

We are going to be starting a new series on “Developing An Ear For Music”. Part 1 will be “Interval Recognition” where I will teach you how to recognize the space between notes, so you can begin to decipher notes just by hearing them.
The class will be Wednesday, August 1st 2018, at 12pm central time.
I hope to see you there!

Jonathan replied to the topic Live Class 7-27-18 | How To Get Strength & Flexibility In Your Fingers in the forum Live Classes 6 years, 4 months ago
Hey Kristy, yes, I would imagine that would work, similar to stretching your legs, where you can push them to force them to the limit, obviously not over or it could cause damage. But if you found that it has been helpful, then that is awesome. Hopefully others can use it as well. Thanks for sharing.
Peg, you are welcome. I’m glad to have been able to provide the content for you. Enjoy!

Hey everyone. We had some technical difficulties with this live class, and the audio/video was very bad, so much so that I couldn’t use the replay. So I created a new recording going over the material that I wanted to cover. You can watch it below. Again, I apologize to those of you who tried to attend, I’ve gotten the issue solved for next week’s class.

Jonathan replied to the topic Finger Slipping..? in the forum Questions & Struggles 6 years, 4 months ago
Hey Angela, could you describe the issue a bit more? Are your fingers slipping down towards the body of the guitar or up towards the head of the guitar? Are they slipping off of the strings or just to another fret? Is it for a particular chord?
If you want, you could also record a quick video demonstrating the problem for the Private Facebook Group, and that would help me know exactly…Read More

Hey Brad, thanks for asking.
I’ve been playing around with learning the G scale.
Also, learning some new advanced songs that use chords I’ve never used before, like Frank Sinatra “The Way You Look Tonight”, and Randy Newman’s “You’ve Got A Friend In Me”, using the F#dim7 chord and some other funky sounding chords. I never thought those chords would ever be useful, but when put in the…Read More

In this week’s live class, we will be discussing how to build strength and flexibility in your fingers, to get better sounding chords. And of course, I’ll be taking your questions as well. Hope to see you there!

Jonathan replied to the topic long sway/ universal strum patterns in the forum Questions & Struggles 6 years, 4 months ago
Hey Brad,
So starting in 2018, I began doing more advanced song tutorials. So now, there are two different types, beginner and advanced tutorials. All of the beginner tutorials use the 18 chords and 3 strum patterns. The advanced tutorials go beyond that. At some point, I plan to create an Advanced Course that will teach “everything else”.
But, that being said, if you’re trying to learn…Read More
