i had the same problem at first with switching chords i found it easier to find chords that have some of the same fingerings and practice them then once that can be done try some harder ones eventually ull build up speed and strength in your fingers. i have only been playing since november and have learnt the majority of the major chords, minor chords and sevenths but i will admit i do sometimes still struggle with B lol

this site was great for helping me understand a bit more and giving simple things that i can do but didnt no it. i didnt realize how simple it was i assumed all notes where all over the place i didnt realize they were in an order.


thanks agin to every1 and please keep replying im sure others out there have had similar problems.

if you take it to a guitar shop theyl probably do it for you where its supposed to be and it would look much better plus if they brake or damage it in anyway its there responsibility then its would only cost you a few quid i had mine done when i bought it.

try wonderwall by oasis very easy to play and sounds great and has a little fingerpicking bit in the middle which is quite easy to learn the chords are on this site, Another site to try is the lick library they do videos on how to play the song and loads of others ok you may have to pay a couple of quid (nothing really) but it helps out alot with your strumming when you can see someone else do it first.
