Very informative for the beginner
As a beginner, I would say that this was very informative. He provided a lot of great tips and tricks as well. I definitely need a lot more practice with the chords to make them sound better. Hopefully I’ll get strength enough to do the bar chords too. Power chords were nice to learn too. I do like the strumming patterns as they can be transferred over to other instruments such as ukulele as well. As for the songs, he went over the chorus, but said the song was in the description. There was no description section anywhere. Maybe I somehow missed that, but I don’t see the actual songs listed. Overall, great course though.
