Learning to Play the Guitar (90 DAY TIMELAPSE)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ก.พ. 2021
- For 90 days, I tried learning a new instrument for the first time -- the guitar :) I started learning (as a complete beginner) using TH-cam tutorials, popular play-along songs, and a "Learn to Play Guitar" book. I played for 15-30 minutes every day and then time-lapsed my videos together to see the progress.
At the beginning, my fingers were burning. I was a complete beginner and was playing the guitar for the first time. I couldn't even play a single chord properly. By the end, my fingers had thick calluses on them and I could play along to a lot of popular songs. What started out as pretty painful ended as super fun, relaxing, and
Thanks so much for watching :) Be sure to leave a comment and let me know if you try playing the guitar for a few months!
Here are the videos I used to learn:

• Play along to popular ...

hey y'all 😊soooo it's been a while (this video has been 3 months in the making! im sorry haha, please don't come for me). anyways thanks for watching and be sure to let me know if you try it!
the wait WILL BE WORTH IT
*Im coming for you*
Actually i am at day one now so i let u know how it goes by day 90, maybe i am just as good as you are then.
Don’t stop, love it ❤️
Can you do an update
Finally an actually realistic video. Saw someone on day 1 playing like 8 chords and songs already 💀
LMFAO nah i am not magically ✨gifted✨
It’s possible with the help of Marty music
Literally what I could do day one lmao
@@synesticgoat9712 me too its easy
I played nothing else matters by Metallica my first day of playing lol yet I’m still bad XD
A quick tip for beginners: it's easier to press down the strings if you trim your fingernails on the fret hand.
What if my nails are very short
Good tip! I'd like to add a tip. If you do work/activities that require you having your fret hand in water often, start wearing those finger condoms. Your calluses will remain hard as a rock. No pun intended with any of that.
For everyone: playing the guitar is not how fast you can learn it but for fun you can take all the time you need everyone is different in learning things (this was mostly my problem when starting to play I used to get so frustrated that everyone learns much faster than me but that’s ok)
this video is a huge morale boost to me cuz this is my 10 days progress. you stayed consistent and so will i, great efforts and dedication, good work. i wonder how the guitar feels to u now that it has been so long
How about now? It's been five months
So glad to find a realistic progress video at an actual beginner level 😂 I finally decided to learn guitar and this is motivating me even more!
You are finally back yayyy!!! Was looking forward to this ... Love ur vids❤
Nice to see a realistic video, hope you keep at it, playing an instrument is extremely rewarding once you get past the first beginner stage!
Definitely trying to play guitar for 90 days tomorrow. hope i'll get as good as you at the end 😋 Cheers!
i admire your motivation honestly
And my teacher said it took her ten years to learn...
hahaha - it definitely takes 10 years to get amazing tho 😂
Depends on your IQ takes someone with an IQ of 80 100 repetitions to learn something while a genius with an IQ of 180 learns it in 1 - 3 repetitions
@@SCARRIOR idk if it has anything to do with IQ. it's more of skills; if you practice enough on something, you'll eventually get better and better with time.
I started drumming about 12 years and at first i didn't even know how to hold a stick. Now i can confidently play pretty much everything on time, order and accuracy.
@@pedromunoz3445 I think IQ influences it as well as your personality, certain people just have natural ability with certain things, there was a video by that well known guitar teacher TH-camr where he explained the different levels of Guitar Students, I was one of the higher levels -- on my 3rd day or so I was already playing tremolo songs and scale switches, but again everything needs practice and discipline, I'm a bit of a perfectionist and I tend to hyper-vision with things I'm into (i.e. stop talking much, might forget to eat, spend hours researching and practicing the same riff over and over even if it's 95% right) so these various factors all add into things, also remember that some people have a natural sense of Rhythm which I'm sure as a drummer you know has a major impact on early learning, all and all big props to this young lady, rock on!
@@pedromunoz3445 IQ shows how fast a person can learn. An ability to adapt really depends on your IQ. Well there are a lot of other factors but IQ plays an important role tho.
Finally a realistic and relatable guitar progress
I am on day 26 today and was desperately in need of some inspiration, my progress has been so slow. Thanks for sharing your ‘realistic’ experience learning guitar. It’s helps knowing that what I’m going through is totally normal and just keep practicing, so thanks 🙏
Hey. How's it going. I'm cheering for you. 🤜🤛
@@Shreya-hy2vf thank you that’s very kind of you 🙏. I’m practicing everyday and slowly getting better. I’m having fun with it so that’s the main thing for me. Do you play Shreya?
@@derekmartin8498 No I haven't yet, Derek. But I will soon get myself a guitar. Could you suggest some beginner friendly guitars?? I've no knowledge of them.
@@derekmartin8498 Enjoying the process is so so important isn't it? Otherwise it will become yet another 'task'. Keep Growing.👍🏼👍🏼 Best wishes.
@@Shreya-hy2vf I would suggest that you go to a store and try out a few and see which one you like. Don’t buy online that way you can try them and see what feels good for you. Thank you for your wishes and I hope you enjoy learning to play the guitar as much as I do, good luck.
omgggg welcome back !!!
Your progress is amazing!
Hey Jess. Today was my very first day practicing guitar. WOW, how do you make C major look so easy? It is nearly impossible for my huge man hands. Love your progression and definitely gives me hope to keep going. Thirty to forty-five minutes a day for 90 days is my goal. Love your voice it’s so soothing and calm. You sounded just like me on my first day. Thanks for this video ❤!!!
You're inspiration for not giving up I love u
omg was looking forward to new video 🤩❤️
You're doing way better than me, I'm jealous a little but also pumped from seeing your progress. Keep up the good work.
thank you for this realistic progress

I'm SO glad I found your video! Your day 1 is currently me the past two days lol. We shall see what day 3 will bring!

I loved this video because I can tell it was real
I know I'm late, Im sorry. And welcome back, I see the wait was not in vain
I'm also learning guitar so I totally related to this video.
Ps: I'm a twenty one pilots fan and when I saw you playing heathens I was like hey I know how to play this one 😅
Don't get used to the thin strings, try to switch back when you're comfortable
Jayy you are back! Your videos are always so inspiring! ✨
Btw I am playing the guitar since I was 5 because my dad is a guitarist haha! 🤭
WOW that's amazing!
OMG my dad is a guitarist too!
Awesome
This really helps with motivation I've had my guitar for almost 2 years, and it just sits in the case. I'm going to pick it back up and discipline myself going for an hour a day every day.
Update: I’ve been playing it consistently for over a week now
@@chelleslifestyle54update 2?
@@glympse4513 yeah I’ve stayed consistent and I’ve learned how to read notes now
@@chelleslifestyle54 wooo! Keep at it queen
Hmu, I fiddle with the axe 🎸 . Let’s grab a zoom or something
Hey Jess, so its been 2 years since you posted this video. how do your guitar skills fair today? I'm really interested. could you make a video on it to show us your progress now. or did you only do the 3 months for an experiment.
Great 💯
I can't remember how I found you, but I'm really glad I did. I really love your content. I was so happy to see that you uploaded a new video ❤
hehe thanks so much
you have a great taste on music, TOP and 1D
why thank you
I grew up playing guitar before the “internet” it was a bitch lmao. Every person/ book you got at the shop we’re timeless. Definitely no tutorials. Fun watching new players get into the journey
Watching this video made me proud of myself because in my day 20 I already learned 1 song and in day 30 I can play 3 song from beginning to end lol
I'm 2 weeks in and starting to at least be able to hear when i play a note or chord wrong. Pretty happy with my progress
amazing! that's honestly half the battle
I bet you will never regret the decision of start playing it!! you still playing?
Thinking of doing one of these. Going to take 90 days lol but hey, going to try
do it!! you got this :)
No, your fingers don’t hurt because of the age of the strings ur fingers just haven’t builded the callus’s to help prevent that pain
#1 You are damn lucky to have those lengths of fingers. #2 You are damn lucky you can grow calluses that stay. #3 Because of #1, and #2, you got this. Sad to say after over a year I can't get #2 and @1 I was born with very short fingers not much longer than an AA battery.
Such a superstar
bwaha mel ily 😂
Nice vid. I’m a freshman in college and impulsively bought an electric guitar set for like $85…lol. Just needed a vid to gauge my progress cause I sound dookie. I’m about to hit week 1 btw
that laugh at 2:08 was adorable 😍
*underrated*
ahhhhh welcome baackkkk
Can u do something about studying u motivat me alot it will be really helpful
Love the video, what is everything you need for an acoustic guitar; all the way dwon from the strings, to the picks and tape?
thanks :) all i used were: 1) the strings that came with my guitar and 2) a pick i made from an old gift card (there's cool diy videos on how to do it!). i would also invest in a capo, because it makes changing keys easier. i found one on amazon for 6$ or so. so i only really spent 6 or so dollars on everything (+ cost of guitar, which i bought refurbished!).
I did try it many times with our old guitar, but i never hold threw for long. The fingers hurt so much😂
Im here before this gets viral
Great progress, Jess. Are you still playing guitar?
Hey what for guitar is it ?😀 Looks very cool :)
Can you please please tell me where u learned from like from some app or TH-cam? And if from TH-cam can you please tell me where you started from because I’m a beginner and I bought my first guitar 3 days ago the only thing I know rn is a few chords can you please share me that where u learned from and what channels videos did you watched 💜
Awww I miss your vlogss
Hey nice video! You still play the guitar? And if so, i’m really curious what you can do now to date! Gr
Hey sis which online classes or vids did u follow or learn?? Even am a begginer
You said get smaller strings but I like my 13 gauges
I started playing 7 months ago and tried a smaller gauge then 13 on my electric and I just hated it but hey I’m now playing lamb of god and I learned canon rock on my first month
im so sad you didnt show us day 69 ( haha nice)
Can i ask how long you were trying in your first days like how many hours did you practice at a day?? I wanna Start learning to.. im just not confiedence enough..
The hardest part is strumming 🎸🔥🥵
🔥PRACTICE MAKES A MAN PERFECT.TRY TRY BUT DON'T CRY....
Finally
😳😳
OH MY GOSH HI!
I love this room
How u learned it i mean on what channel u learned to play guitar who taught u pls tell 😭😭😭
How's it going with the guitar?
i am on day 4 and i cannot play e minor for the life of me. its the first chord im trying to learn
how long did it take you to properly play the chords (just the basic ones like A, C, D, E, E minor and all..) without like the fingers touching the adjacent strings so that the buzzing sound doesn't come :')?
it took about 3-4 weeks to build the calluses on my fingers so i could play them without accidentally hitting the adjacent strings!
I’ll be attempting to learn how to play the guitar within 2 months, any tips? 😅
well i learned in 3 days what u learned in 4 weeks im amazed..
Violin please
Idk🤔🤔🤔 why I skip strumming when I'm learning guitar I have to learn it after I learn plucking and fingerstyle my feeling just when I'm strumming is awkward
❤📈🦾 yo you turnt the fuq up on day 70 😈👌🏽
You don’t need more strings it’s just you need a watch that thing that you use for a guitar if it gets tough it’s like a court thing anywhere where it makes music in it does it hurt your fingers if they’re tough and old
Never mind you figure it out
I love your videos 😍 and you're also very beautiful
oh i thought you forgot your account password
✨not yet ✨
It's my first day... 🙂
Ive been playing for 7 days and i still cant make the strings sound good i push with all of my power but still buzzuing and if i dont push that bad wont make a sound im just tired at this point i cant even feel my fingers
Hi! Ouch, that doesn't sound like fun! :( You might be pressing down too hard, or in the wrong position - How about playing one note with one finger (your pointer finger) over and over again until it stops buzzing? it might be your finger placement or the strings. Here's a great article: www.fender.com/articles/play/5-ways-to-stop-fret-buzz. Keep me updated :)
How long did you practice each day and what online tutorial would you suggest?
30 minutes a day to see significant progress, and I'd suggest starting here: th-cam.com/video/BBz-Jyr23M4/w-d-xo.html. Then find a pop song you love (w/ four chords, which most of them are :)) and play it until you get it down really well!
yo, she plays guitar? nice...
