Re: Guitar picks (22 replies, posted in Acoustic)
I use Brain Picks and whenever I tried other brands always come back. Try the Purple (.60mm) though I use the Red which is a little thicker. I think the Purple will be easy to hold lightly and soften up the strum.
The Snarling Dogs Brain Picks feature a gritty grip surface to prevent slipping and memory tips for accurate picking. One dozen picks in a reusable tin. Available in the following gauges/colors:.53mm/green.60mm/purple.73mm/red.88mm/black1.00mm/grey1.14mm/orange

Re: Remembering Chords (31 replies, posted in Acoustic)
For a simple trick, use words in the song lyrics to associate with chords. You can remember most chords just by repitition. For example, in The Eagles' "Take it Easy", when the chorus goes to "Come on Baby" there is a D chord that doesn't appear in the other chorus. Same trick works in most song. Just think of the word in the lyrics where the turns are made one at a time they'll become familiar. I agree with Dguyton you want to make eye contact when you are able. It's pretty gratifying for you and the audience as well to see someone singing the words along with you hitting the chords.

Re: Weird strum (7 replies, posted in Acoustic)
Welome Sonnya. I would ask you to consider your strum hand talent just as important as your fret hand, even though the fret hand seems to do all the thinking. In that way you'll realize you can double your playing ability without learning any new chords if you know what I mean. Also, you want to be careful not to develop a habit that can potentially make all your songs sound like the same song..more or less. Try listening to Viva La Vida by Cold Play and imagine how that would be drastically different with another strum pattern. I think it goes down, down, down, down-up, up, up, up, down-up, down-up. Just an example where you'll benefit from just the strumming hand. Good luck!

Elixer strings are known for being a little less bright, so maybe give those a try. I use Custom Light nanowebs at 0.011.

Re: Stuck in a rut (17 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
+1 on the Plateaus and the blues. Maybe warm up the band before starting the practice of your "songs" with a blues progression anyone can comfortably play. Then take a few turns on some made up solo improvisation. No need to sing or complete the song, it's just a warm up. What I think you'll find is your mates will come up with some catchy lyrics just to goof off. Another idea is see if you all like a song that's out of the genre of most that you play. It may come out as a fresh sound. Good luck as it sounds like you're doing all the right things.

My daughter's Yamaha Pacifica has HSH setup which I enjoy. Also, I'm particular to satin finish. It seems more slippery. Whatever you go with it seems like you picked a nice one and I bet it will be fun to play. Be sure to post your progress.

Re: good songs to practice on the Acoustic???? (25 replies, posted in Acoustic)
You ought to say what kind of music you like so we can tell what will work. But in the end you'll want to collaborate with other guitarists at some point so there are some mainstays that will give you a chance to play along when you get that chance.

Re: Thumb and Picking Pattern? (12 replies, posted in Acoustic)
All good advice. But generally, thumb owns strings 4 5 6 and strings 1 2 3 belong to the other fingers for reasons said. Bass notes with the thumb, etc. T 1 T 2 or T 1 2 T 1 3 would be pick patterns that go well with this arrangement where T is your thumb. If you watch even the most accomplished musicians you'll see there are many ways to make beautiful music in your own style.
This guy shows it pretty well.

I have a boss rc 2 which I find great for solo practice but I dont use it live as I find it hard to time the stop start as it requires a double click . The only live use Ive done with it was about a year ago when I needed to make a rythm track for a solo gig ,I got round the stop problem by having the engineer fade the finish for me from the desk
I also have the RC2 but added FS-5U for $17.50 which allow you to stop on one stomp and erase or stop on one stomp then restart same sequence already recorded (depending on switch position on FS-5U). This seamlessly lets me practice several layers of background to build on solo's. I think it gives you the chance to learn vocals on some songs while accompanying yourself to keep the rhythm. I don't know, but out of all the accessories I feel like it gives back the most for the money and effort. Short learning curve especially with the added FS-5U convenience.

Re: New band name could win you some cash (79 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Idiot Savants was once suggested, but political correctness made it go off the list. I still like it, but you need a name that says you'll be playing Nostalgic Rock. Your music selection sounds very appealing. I'd say pick a name that says you'll be playing Old School of Rock.

Re: Wooo! We're finally on YouTube! (9 replies, posted in Bands and artists)
Nice work. Beamer's right tho. If you want to improve it, camera needs to zoom in on singer occasionally and she needs a mic. The supporting cast needs some attention too, yes, but focus on the lyrics at least part of the time. Also, singer needs to look right into the camera and mean what she's saying. Appears to be singing to herself. Again nice work, but if your posting for comment these comments are meant to give positive feedback. Keep up the good work as music is a gift to others. Thanks for sharing it.

Re: Barre chords up the neck (9 replies, posted in Acoustic)
Z one of the things that improves speed remarkably is learning to "loosen" your grip during the chord changes. It takes practice to intentionally loosen because I remember how hard it was to get that fret hand shape but loosen then grip and your muscle memory also improves. Again, don't hold on for dear life and the chord changes speed up nicely. +1 on the Elixers.
