Throughout my 29 years of playing and teaching guitar, I’ve noticed that most beginners struggle with the same five big obstacles. That’s why I want to do a little mini-series on these important areas of playing.
Timing
Strumming
Clean Chords
Smooth Chord Transitions
Bar Chords
Getting these five skills down is the key to playing the songs you love. This first video sets everything up and primes you for success.
I hope you will join me as we release this series over the next several weeks.

I am practicing 20-30 minutes 4-5 days, focusing on bar chords. My overarching goal is to be able to play with our praise team whenever needed and to accompany myself when singing.
My commitment is 1 hour a day, 6 days a week, currently focused on timing, strumming and clean chords. All with an intention to be musical and have fun. If you're new to Guitar Fam or Nate Savage's approach, stick around. As a professional teacher myself, I can wholeheartedly endorse his depth, integrity and skill. Plus, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better soul who just wants you to become the guitar player you want to be.
