thanks for this clear and concise video really helped i want more

Completely clear and easy to understand, but I’m a beginner and I need major help with F, B, Fmin, and Bmin. Also having slight trouble with progression. Could you make a video for those chords, please? Btw, is it normal for a beginner to have trouble with F and B? Just wondering. Thanks!

Thank you so very much now back to practice lots more..

Well yes and no. Bringing your thumb to the middle of the neck will give you further range of motion, and for a beginner this can be very important. As you begin to develop as a guitar it is natural to see your thumb start to rest above that sixth string. It also depends on what you are doing at the time. If your starting out and are finding it hard to form the chords, bringing your thumb towards the middle of the neck could be a solution

Josh, i just seen a guitar lesson video for proper techniques and the guy said to keep your thumb half-way on the back of the guitar neck not on the top above the low e string, is that true?..

Thankyouu this is awesome!

Thanks! This video is really helpful for me! I’m learning how to play the guitar without lessons, so right now, you are my lessons! lol. I’m having trouble not hitting the other strings that I’m not fretting while playing some of the chords and it sounds kinda bad… but I’ll keep practicing! = ) (Some of chords are easier than others)

this really helps me, I can memorize all these chords already. thanks a lot for this, keep it up! best I’ve seen around on youtube for beginners. superb!

I think you should do 7 more chords
