    You are a very competent and skilled player with a gift of teaching. You should share more about yourself so people have an insight to you the person as well as the artist. I found your version of Colorblind to be one of the most, if not the most accurate version on KZread. Thank you.

    Hi Veronica! Sorry for the slow reply. Buying a first guitar, the most important thing to keep in mind is playability. There are a lot of junk instruments out there that are difficult to play. If you're interested in an acoustic guitar, there are reputable builders such as Yamaha, Fender and Seagull that produce good entry-level guitars. Ideally, if you have a friend who already plays, ask them to go with you to a guitar shop to try out guitars before you buy.

    Hey Lauren, sorry for the slow reply. If you haven't already, check out my tablature for the lesson. There's a link in the description. Also, you may find it helpful to isolate the movements for each hand. You can practice the left-hand chord forms and right hand pattern separately. Once you are comfortable with what each hand needs to do, you can combine the two. That's a practice idea I picked up studying classical guitar. I hope that is helpful!
