[Buzzing on low E string]

Hi All, hope everyone is safe and getting extra time to play with the quarantine....finally got new Epiphone SG...plays real well and sound with the boss katana is really clear and clean...in S14 now and really enjoying the journey 🎸🎼🎸

[Buzzing on low E string]

Thanks everyone for your feedback. After looking at the neck a bit closer with the guitar tech, it was not going to play right as the neck was dried out as well. I returned it and now waiting for a new 2020 Epiphone SG Standard ‘61...everything happens for a reason 🎸🎼🎸

[Buzzing on low E string]

Thanks for your feedback....I will try the truss today adjustment and hope for the best....do I turn it left or right? 🎸🎼🎸

Thanks Neil for your feedback....will try all methods and experiment accordingly 🎸🎼🎸

[Live Lesson: February 11th - Triads (Part 1/3) - Major Triads]

Hi all, I am just starting with Triads and wanted to ask, if you play the triad using a pick, finger or play it finger style? Thanks for your comments.🎸🎼🎸

[Buzzing on low E string]

Hi all, I just picked up an Epiphone SG Pro and note the low E string and slightly on the A, has a buzzing sound on the first 3 frets and then clears up as I move down the neck. The guitar tech noticed  the neck was slightly bowed. I realize it’s not the most expensive guitar but I do not think there should be a buzz. Is this something that an be corrected with minor adjustment or have it replaced, since it is only couple weeks old? Other than that it plays real well and sound is really good considering the price point. Thanks in advance for your feedback. 🎸🎼🎸

[Session 12 Acoustic Groove]

Hi Steve,

Thanks for your reply. This was very helpful as I was playing using barre chords. The alternate fingering you ahow seems a lot easier.  Not sure if I missed this in an earlier lesson. Really enjoying the journey...never thought I would get this far..

regards, 
chris 🎸🎼🎸

Thanks Neil for your response....Chris

[Order of Posting]

I wanted to ask, when posting a new topic, shouldn’t that come on the first page of the topic? For example posting a new topic to lessons, I would expect to see on first page, however it shows on page 2. In this regard, folks may not go to the next pages to see if there is a new post. Any feedback is welcomed. Thank you in advance. 🎸🎼🎸

[Session 12 Acoustic Groove]

Hi all, it’s good to be progressing forward in my journey...I wanted to ask in the 4th and 12th measure is Steve playing an alternate form for Bsus and Bmajor? if so which fingers is he fretting...it was hard to pick up...thank you for your comments 🎸🎼🎸

[Session 12 - Advanced Chords]

Thanks Neil and Diane for your comments. I will keep working on these exercises and will keep you posted on my progress. Hope this will also get my pinky to stretch away from my thumb as it always seems to go inward....at my tender age of 61... I figure may just take bit more time to get more flexibility...🎸🎼🎸 Thanks Chris 

[Session 12 - Advanced Chords]

Hi Neil, my search came up with a stretching exercise for Chris shapes by Steve and  don’t think it was the one you were referring. If you have the link or copy of the exercise would be great...thanks for your feedback...🎼🎸🎼

[Session 12 - Advanced Chords]

Neil, thanks for the reply and will certainly check the stretching exercise noted....🎸🎼🎸

[Session 12 - Advanced Chords]

Hi all, I am having issues with my ring finger and pinky when trying the moveable G2 chord.  I wanted to ask if there’s anything to recommend to get my fingers to stretch accordingly. This is the first chord up to this point inLMG where my fingers are just not that flexible. Any exercises or other tips...thanks for reading 🎸🎼🎸

[Pentatonic Scales Session 11]

Thank you for the feedback and glad I was correct when playing in the first form. I figure I will practice with the other forms also as the exercise seems to be teaching getting comfortable moving up and down the neck. Any advice before I move on to S12?  Thanks again and enjoying the journey 🎸🎼🎸

[Pentatonic Scales Session 11]

As I am proceeding through LMG journey, I wanted to ask if the following starting frets are correct (first finger) when playing “around the pentatonic world”, on page 66:

C minor - 8th fret

D minor - 10th fret

E minor - 12th fret

F minor - 1st fret

G minor - 3rd fret

A minor - 5th fret

Bb minor - 6th fret

B minor - 7th fret 

Thanks for any comments 🎼🎸🎼

I too began the LMG later in life and started about year and a half ago and currently in S11.. life gets in the way at time and priorities change....as us older folks now have a little more free time....happy that I started and can’t believe I have gotten this far...really enjoying the ride 🎸🎼🎸 

[5 Pedals EVERY Guitar Player Should Own]

Just wanted to ask if it’s worth the extra money for the Boss ME80....seems the GT1 has a loop and did not notice that on the ME80 but maybe I missed something....sure both have their pros and cons. For experimenting as a beginner, seems for the money better to get a processor than individual pedals and their accessories....🎸🎼🎸 

[Who Out There Is Studying the Learn and Master Guitar Program?]

Hi just started S11bonus material and interesting to play along with the music doing the patterns. It certainly breaks up the regular practice session and just playing chords....so far moving it’s coming along and look forward to S12...... hard to believe I have come this far ...but happy I finally decided to get back to the journey.... 🎸🎼🎸 

[Chords in early sessions of The Song Hits]

Thanks for the reply and exactly as stated what was difficult yesterday seems a bit easier today. I am now in lesson 11 and pieces are starting g to fall into place. It has been an exciting and fun journey so far and happy to have picked up the guitar again and sticking with it.....🎸😎🎼

[I bought a lot of amps and 108 effects this week]

As a serious beginner into the world of pedals and just starting lesson 11 and getting comfortable with the pentatonic forms. I thought it would be best to get a multi effects machine to start an understanding into the effects before investing into numerous individual pedals.....anyone using  Boss Me80? Also, is it easier in the beginning to get a tube amp with a effects board or model,er amp with effects board....so much more to learn and maybe not enough time as the decades seems to move quite quickly these days...appreciate any feedback 🎸😎🎼

[Fender Squire Strat from Indonesia]

Thanks for the advice and will let you know how this works out.....🎼

[Pedals]

Thanks everyone for your feedback and not really hung up on the Katana50.....will certainly let everyone know how this winds up...think I will try to keep it simple at first without needing all these bells and whistles.....may peek ahead to LMG s15, currently will just be starting session 11......hope to complete the course sometime next year hopefully🎸🎼 I realize I still have lots to learn 😎
