Tuning with capo on

Hi Neil,

I got my guitar to the open D tuning we had discussed. We didn’t discuss re-tuning it after I put the capo on to E. But I just watched the video for Big Yellow Taxi and I see in that video that you re-tune with capo on. Can you confirm that what’s I want to do with my song?

Sitting to standing

So, I got a guitar strap with the thought of learning to play standing. I don’t like it one bit so far!!! First off I didn’t realize I would also need strap locks? Still have to Google that. Second, I didn’t realize how different my guitar would sound to me in the standing position. My question is d...

Re: Alanis Morissette Ironic by Ysela Lujan

Michele, Thank you so much for the kind words. I will admit I am impatient and it is not serving me to be so. Have you uploaded a video of yourself? I'd love to see your progress as well. Yeah, Vanessa makes it seem so easy, it's a bit frustrating. And I don't have as much time to commit to improvin...

Bookmarking Lessons

Hello,
Is there a way to bookmark lessons that I am working on? That way I have them all in one spot rather than having to search for them each time.

Thank you,
Ysela

Re: Patsy Cline, Strange by Ysela Lujan

Thanks for the feedback Vanessa. Really, its tank tops all the time with me tbh. :) I was a bit unsure about submitting a video but I'm really glad I did. Neil gave me some great pointers to make my simple song more interesting without necessarily making it any harder. I'm not at the point where I c...

Re: Patsy Cline, Strange by Ysela Lujan

Thanks for the feedback Dermot. You know there are so so many songs I want to learn and I feel like I may be a pick/strummer type of player. All the ones I'm interested in are like that. But I would like to def try and learn to fingerpick, I just have to pick an easy one to start. Any suggestions? C...

Recommend A Lesson

Hi, I submitted some recommendations on the wrong area I believe so I am re-submitting them here.

Both are the live versions that I am recommending.

1: Hazard-Richard Marx. Live acoustic version.

2: Crow-Dan Fogelberg. Live acoustic version.


Thanks!

Re: Welcome To Recommend A Lesson

Hello, I would love to learn both of these, preferably in a female key I could sing easier. I love the strumming pattern that Richard Marx uses. I love the accents on the individual notes that Dan Fogelberg uses and would love to learn both techniques. Thank you, Ysela 1: Richard Marx-HAZARD https:/...
