    Hi Sisi,

    Welcome and happy New Year!

    I agree… all the good songs need at least one bar chord 🙂

    The main issue I’ve found with students is they attempt bar chords with little preparation.

    If you’d like some feedback on where to get started let me now.

    I see you’ve spent some time on Begger Guitar For Grownups course. Good start. I’d encourage you to start on the Beginner’s Journey (The Roadmap). It’s the next logical place and very step-by-step.

    I’ve just simplified the Home Page so it’s one of the big circles on top.

    Let me know if that makes sense or if there’s something else I should know to best help you.

    Take care Sisi,

    Tomas

    Also, I think you’ll find this short video that I just completed helpful…

    Yes, that makes sense. I’ve just created a General Discussion forum. Let’s give it a try.

    Thanks again Jack. I really appreciate your ideas.

    Hi Jack,

    I apologize for not responding to this sooner. Thanks for attending the “Uke” session.

    Are you thinking of kind of a General topic in addition to the Community Help Forum?

    Hi Roxanne,

    They are called Play-Along Tracks and you can access them in the left sidebar.

    Here’s the direct link: https://realguitarsuccess.com/play-along-tracks/

    Sometimes I call them Jam Tracks… I haven’t decided which I like best 🙂

    This is where I’ve compiled the different backing tracks.

    You’ll find that courses (like Improvisation FastTrack) have tracks included right there on the course page and lesson page.

    BTW… I’ll be talking about Improvisation at tomorrow’s (Thursday 11/2/17) RGS Live.

    Hi John,

    I’m Tomas from Alameda, California (near San Francisco).

    Welcome to Real Guitar Success and to the forum. Glad you made it.

    Are you a brand-new beginner or have you been playing for little while?

    If so are there any issues that you know you’d like to work on?

    I look forward to hearing from you and supporting you in your guitar learning journey.

    Bye for now John,

    Hey… Jesse Cook… one of my favorites.

    Not quite traditional Flamenco but what some call Rumba Flamenco (referring to the specific rhythm used) or Nouveau Flamenco (coined by the guitarist Ottmar Liebert).

    No need to be good at fingerstyle first… but you will need bar chords.

    Try out the course included here on real Guitar Success New Flamenco Guitar Mini Course: https://realguitarsuccess.com/courses/new-flamenco-guitar-mini-course/

    The Rumba rhythm is a main component of this style. You’ll get an idea of what you’re up for and can decide if you’re ready.

    Tomas

    I have an entire separate course on this style, but I’d try the shorter sampling course that’s included first.
