    Hi Greg,

    Over time the calluses on your finger will get harder. It has the effect of not only making it firmer when you press down the note but also reducing the pain. It really is just part of a process.

    There’s another thing going on. You’re making subtle adjustments on how you angle your fingers and where you place them on the fretboard. It’s not something you usually get just right in the first few weeks… Or even months.

    Pressing harder is not the only way to reduce the buzzing. But it usually takes a while to figure out the subtle movements.

    Glad I asked. There’s an entire workbook for this course that’s missing. I’ll have that added by tomorrow this time. The button will be on the initial page of the entire course.

    Hi Dora,

    Tell me more. What made you ask. Did you see a lesson for this song?

    The reason I ask is I have several versions of sheet music for this song and I want to get you the right one.

    Welcome, Sissel. I am absolutely delighted to have you here. Please don’t hesitate to ask questions here or below the lessons if I can help.

    BTW… The easiest way nowadays to create a video of your playing and post it is with your phone and YouTube. I made a video to help: https://realguitarsuccess.com/create-guitar-playing-video/

    No pressure, but I think once you get the hang of it you have fun.

    Sounds like you have a good practice routine. The sore finger thing will go away if you’re consistent. You’ll have a lot more opportunities to work on changing chords as you progress through the lessons.

    Keep up the good work Terry!
