I love how real this video is. Most videos where people show their progress, they only show the good parts. Like they progress super quick. Makes me feel better about being a slow learner. I have been playing for nearly 3 years. 😅
Im a beginner i lose intrest pretty easily even with easiest things. I bought a guitar 2 yrs ago and lost all the motivation to play it cuz i wasnt playing properly i thought its easy and once i knew it wasnt easy as i thought the consistency is gone. The guutar was smwhr in my store room. So i wanna know how can i not lose the motivation in the process just bcuz i cant play it. It makes me feel overwhelmed. So pls tell me how much time does it take to be used with those fingers wounds,switching chords,strumming, and ur most first song that u played perfectly. How much time did it take? Plsss let mee knoww. I serviced my guitar again to play it. Where can i begin from?.
@@amrr1.2 It took me a month of playing every single day for 2 hours(on accoustic)to develop callouses,switch chords easily Im now learning fingerstyle there is not short cut u just have to be consistent and if u dont enjoy guitar after 2-3 months then guitar isn't good for u

Hello, a tip: start reading tabs , electric guitarists generally don't use chords much, not like acoustic ones that are used there. Most (if not all) guitar songs use tablature. I also recommend you study the theoretical part, it will be easier for you Sorry x my bad english is not my first Language ヾ(＾-＾)ノ good video
I think it’s best to start off with chords because It builds basic fundamentals for finger dexterity, rhythm, and song structure and it gets you more comfortable with play the guitar. But it’s up to them to decide.
I Disagree !!! Electric guitarist all know how to play chords. Chords are fundamental to playing the guitar. Tab is very useful for playing small fingerstyle riffs (The melody of the song) however, to be good at the guitar and not just know how to play one song you will want to learn chords. The best way to learn guitar (if i could start over again) is: 1. Learn to hold down individual notes first (Hold them down with the lowest amount of pressure while having a clean not buzzing sound) 2. Learn to play basic chords (Chords are just a combination of notes. Most pop songs are played using 4 chords), learn to play G, Em, D, C 3. Practice changing between those 4 chords as fast as you can 4. Play any song you like !!!! (At this point of knowing only 4 chords you can play 100's of songs, search for any 4 chord song you like) 5. Keep practising off youtube videos while learning more chords
just some tips!! - you’re not supposed to be pressing that hard that your fingers have groove - when you’re strumming, move your wrist, not your arm. just be more fluid. - for fretting try to have some fingers down, for example if you’re playing “2” on E keep that finger down, if you’re then playing “3” on E and then “2” you already have the “2” finger down so it’s less energy and moving around - id also recommend the spider walk to improve accuracy and speed! lmk if that doesn’t make sense
This popped up on my reccomended page. I love music and playing music on guitar and i'm happy too see someone who seems like they really want to play. I'm really passionate about music. Hopefully you have enjoyed your playing guitar so far!
Just discovered the video, cool you want to learn the guitar... The slanted thing on your guitar bridge is called "saddle" - you need an "Allen Key" in the right size (maybe 1,5mm(?)) for those screws. You also set up the saddle/string height with these screws. Also be careful not to press too hard on the strings, the notes will go slightly sharp if you do. And it hurts more...
If I were her I would just go with a better electric or a acoustic the electric she got is pretty nasty and won’t last you for a long one, when I started out I bought a cheap guitar from my local musical store after having troubles I threw the guitar and ended up getting a Epiphone 10 years later I got 5 guitars and a les Paul goldtop
@@marieedean7981 I don't think you understood, if u r a real guitarist u would generally know that starting out with a used or good guitar is always best for easy play
To fix the E string u first have to takeout the string (by loosing its tuning peg and taking it out from the back) then put the bridge saddle(that contorted rectangular thing) back in place and adjust the height of the string with a small tool shaped as an L, that often comes with the guitar kit, by inserting it inside the two holes of the saddle. Here’s a video to make it easier to understand: th-cam.com/video/tnVuvoj3WXs/w-d-xo.html
Just take it to a guitar shop and tell them to set it up. I think she needs to concentrate on learning her guitar instead of trying to be a guitar tech at this point.
@@matthewearl9824 its really not that hard to turn a basic peg with a allen key that will raise the saddle or lower it, one of the screws was backed out causing it to be like that, not learning how to setup your own instrument as a musician is just not a good idea. also not hating on her for not knowing how to do this and it could just be a really cheap stripped screw which would just be a quality issue on those cheap starter kits.
It's really refreshing to see a fellow beginner guitarist struggeling but also discovering the joy of creating music. Usually the algorithm recommends me the super talented people who apparently pick up the guitar and are able to play chords flawlessly in a matter of a month, which I found to be extremly frustrating to watch. So thank you for portraying your progress so authentic. Also, I'd recommend getting a teacher if possible. This helped me achieve way better progress.
hey !! guitar player here. youre gonana have to cut your nails way shorter than that so you can get the right positioning and this becomes essential in the future to do more complicated things. I also recommend yt way more than any app tbh. idk if you like cigarette daydreams but i looked it up and it was the first song i learnt. you should also try doing scales like the pentatonic and practice slides, vibratos etc. i wish you luck on your journey, the beginning can be really hard and frustrating but its really worth it !!
true, being a musician i learned quickly that I can not have long nails lol😅 once they got a bit longer than usual and it was torture to play with, and i cut them short again right away
still wating for new ep for this... I have been a guitarist for 8 years, so I find it kinda fun to watch beginners learn where they need to go and have fun tho
personally, i think that using fender play is a really great app to use for learning how to play the guitar! it helps you with rhythm, chords, and sm more :) also, a great way to remember the string letters is ‘easter bunnies get dizzy at easter’ EBGDAE (from high e going up to low e) i hope this helps, although you posted this 6 months ago lolol :D
Hey! How’s the journey? Vlogging is such a cool way to look back and see how far you’ve come since you first started out. I know you don’t want your nails shorts, but it’s essential to have short nails on the fretting hand so you can position your finger the correct way and won’t injured your hand (and better reach overall). Btw it’s my first time discover you channel and you’re so pretty.
@@kirstan i mostly watched youtube videos and was in a club in school for about half a year. really all you need to do is practice :) if your starting to play or even if you have for awhile practice will make you so much better and learning new skills
please, I just have to say, I love your vibes. you’re so calming and genuine. I’ve been scrolling through youtube all night, feeling a bit anxious about choosing which acoustic guitar to buy before the end of the year, but it’s reassuring to know there are others out there, like me, trying to learn an instrument from scratch.💖
Hey! I’m also a beginner (and self taught)! Me personally, i always use songsterr. It helped me a lot! It’s been 6 months now and i can play solo. As for your fingers, it always started like that. You will have callus as you went on and it won’t be as hard to press :> Goodluck on your learning!
@@fablihakarim7305 you mean the guitar tablature? The lines represent the guitar, and the numbers represent the frets! At first you may be slow, but after memorising the number of the frets, it will be easy :)
my girl absolutely bought it for the aesthetic and thought she would be able to play brazil in under ten minutes 😭 edit: anyone whos thinking about playing an instrument should research it first, just to see if its worth the money and actually something that they want to learn how to do. you shouldn’t just buy a guitar because you _think_ youre gonna like it and be dedicated to it. always research. and i know shes a beginner and i was one too, but theres so many videos and websites out there that anyone can use to learn more about guitars how to play them. long story short: PLEASE RESEARCH BEFORE BUYING AN INSTRUMENT ‼️
lmao it kinda made me mad like this girl ordered a guitar and did not even know the first thing about playing,, "i really like keeping my nails long" 😭😭
omgg this vid was great!! I started learning around 3 years ago actually playing and playing (im self taught as well) and I am able to play a lot better now and even solos and everything, dont give up!! I hope to see a part two of this soon!! :D.
Hellooo! If you are new to playing electric guitar, try getting some chords and pentatonic scales in with your learning! (trust me, they really help..and yes, your fingers can sometimes get purple-ish and you'll get corns on your fingers time to time with practice, annoying smh) Good luck on your journey!
Im gonna buy a guitar probably today and im so excited! Watching this video made me even more excited!!, I literally cant waittt!! Btw i loved ur video!
10:00 when i started playing guitar my fingers were like that, i thought it was bad but really, it wasn’t. when you get into learning the higher stages of your guitar your fingertips should go rock hard, it’s a sign you have got the “guitar-tips” that’s what i call it, anyways lol! i know this was ages ago but i hope you have improved from here, wishing you luck fellow guitarist!!
coloring a pick with nail polish is NOT optimal as it might wear away in a few months... you can try buying a new pack of picks! there are a lot of fun options :D stickers is great but it is much painful to take them down later than to put them up ... trust I speak from experience :| left hand nails should be shorter tbh like down to the flesh spoiler: it is proven to be easier to have short nails on your left hand. You would to need to do weird gestures or press as hard and you will DEFINITELY not dig grooves into your fretboard... which would be a huge L if you had a more expensive guitar... welp if you get cuts or blisters within week 1-3 it is totally normal you will grow new skin and just stick with it it is like working out but like guitar takes a lot of dedication to move forward so... bye long nails? for 11:11 loosen that string; take the allen wrench it gave you and adjust it to the right level. trust it would work though if you are not sure try a few different ones and see which one should fit. but remember to loosen the string first! for your final playing demo you should not be muting your strings too soon. it would sound a lot more fuller if you let it ring out like 0.5 seconds more :) everyone start off somewhere imean I didn't get any progress in the first 2 years or so and I truly hope my advices and constructive criticism helped you :D but anyways you are off to a great start! even though it was kinda shtty but it was MUCH better than having a busted d tuner or having to switch 3 guitars. I believe you will be a great musician if you keep going! p.s. I am also a highschool student :)))))))))))))))))))
I know that you probably abandoned that guitar, but as a tip for others beginners who are watching: NAILS SHOULD BE WAY WAY WAYY SHORTER. And on the right hand especially, because you need to press the string with a tip of finger, really close to the nail. Your fingers shouldn't be flat when you're pressing the strings, they should like stand (sorrt for poor explanation)
Just a tip for the future, but buying new gear is not always the best option, at the end of the day it all comes from your fingers and better gear wont make you play better 99% of the time. It is hard to realize this as a beginner but its a marathon not a sprint! Of course you want something you like and having a couple guitars is not an issue but its very easy to get lost in buying new gear all the time. But its also awesome seeing people learn, it is not easy, so hopefully you continue on your journey.
why’d u buy the guitar if u we’re gonna quit after like what 3 days? Those are damn expensive😭😭 Also did it trigger anyone else when she put nail polish on the pick JUST bc it was a different color😞
yesss omg! If she was really interested in playing the guitar then she would first practice without gaf about putting stickers on the guitar yet PAINT THE PICK lmaooo!
a suggestion i have is to let the strings ring for a little more. instead of immediately going to the next string. and while i do recommend simply guitar, their tutorials are very helpful, i also recommend you learn how to read guitar tabs because you will be able to learn a lot more songs and get the basis of playing a guitar. it’s like simply guitar but instead of animated it’s typed out
If u wanna learn how to play, your nails need to be super short because otherwise the chords aren’t going to sound clean. Hope u stick to it tho !!! Have fun
I just discovered your channel and I'm obsessed!! your vlogs are so cute and you are so beautiful! I just recently started my own channel and you are such an inspiration. Im wanting to get into vlogging more and I love your style :D I also got an Electric guitar a few weeks ago, but it being the beginning of the school year, I haven't had much time to practice. Any way I just wanted to say I love your content and keep it up girl! 💕
There are 2 things i would recommend u to do. 1 ur guitar has some set up problems which makes ur guitar is not as easy to play (don't worry, it happens a lot in cheaper range but it can be fixed) take the guitar to the guitar shop ask them if they can set up ur guitar which usually include some money (u can do it urself but it's not easy at all) 2 ur left hand nails are too long (i know that they should be looking good) but it's not gonna be as easy as short nails. Hope it helps! Good luck!
Go and have your guitar setup. Can be done by a friend who knows how to set up a guitar or from a guitar shop. Besides the E string bridge issue, there are other things like high/low action which might need to be fixed which is done during the setup process. Some work might need to be done to the guitar's nut to stay in tune which almost all guitars have this issue unless it is a high end custom handmade ones like the Fender custom, Suhr guitars, etc. After doing those setups, you can fully focus on the learning the guitar. Additional tips if you are interested: 1. Use a guitar pick and practice alternate picking, etc. It's better to pick this habit now than later. 2. Get a cheap and better guitar amp like the Yamaha THR5A. Those amps comes as a free bundle with the guitar usually doesn't sound good. You can check out amps sound comparison of a good amp and a budget to see the huge difference.
Hey, no worries regarding your fingers. It's normal to shred the finger tips when you start out. Have been playing since 2006 and had a lot of bleeding fingers and strings throughout the first 4 years 🙈
Definitely wouldn’t recommend painting you picks with whatever because as you are playing the paint will chip and fall right onto your single coil pickups and not only will this effect your tone but also if a small chipped piece of paint falls into your pickup and melts that definitely wouldn’t be good.
@@bubblysivan_Official In my opinion, stickers completely ruin the aesthetics of the guitar, imagine that later these stickers get dirty and lose their colors
i learned how to play guitar through playing a song and looking through its chords and what the fingers position in on ultimate guitar (yup, i memorized eadgbe). i do play bass too, but i only read tabs for now (i have covers on my channel), i'm doing the same thing i did on guitar, so i can memorized the chords too. i'm still learning, but by that, i can play any song with just looking by its chords.
@@Luxxurmom Thats why i posted this comment haha. "Episode 1" So does episode 2 take another year or just never used the guitar? Maybe just bought it to waste money for something aesthetic lmao
When i saw your channel for the first time i was like omgosh she, s soo pretty fr but later iam getting a guiter on my bday only 14 days left soo i was leraning and your my one of my fav youtuber 😢when i saw your video i was like omgosh iam soo obessed rn ❤funfact:i watched this video 5 times
I remember the first time I had to cut my really long nails which almost brought me to tears. I tried to keep my nails as long as I could but some things must be sacrificed. And now I have absolutely no nails cus the key to sounding better is holding the chords right and short nails help a lot.
its good you cut your nails early on. Ive been playing guitar for a few years and trimming your left hand (hand you use on the frets) the nails can hit the other strings which you dont want. you can keep them long on the other hand however as its useful for finger picking!
It’s great that she was inspired by bea and wanted to start playing as well! But if you want to become good you gotta practice, and I learned that the hard way because like her, (I assume) I got a guitar to feel cool and learn something new but realized how hard it was and that I needed to seriously practice so I gave up easily. 1 school year later and I began to take real classes and want to improve. In short, never give up if you truly love something!!!
@Oddi3s.Odditi3s because it's such a fake/poser thing to do lol. The fact that she hasn't uploaded the next part of this "series" in 2 years just shows she wasn't serious about learning. She should've just been honest and admitted she wanted the guitar for aesthetic purposes.
you'll get the hang of using an electric guitar. just make sure that if you're using a guitar strap that doesnt hook on like guitar locks, then you gotta buy guitar locks for that kind of guitar strap. someday you'll be able to play like slash or eddie van halen haha
A lot of people are hating on her for putting stickers on her guitar, but she bought it with her money. She can do whatever she wants with it as long as she’s actually using it and she is
and yes its normal for the beginning that you finger gets little cuts but your fingers skin is getting harder thats making it much easier to play with out the hurt
the more you practice at the beginning, the most you have to know to grow up in the guitar, its funny and some times you gonna be frustrated, almost with those chords like F, just prepare your mind to punch those walls down 🌻🌻
If u just started playing the guitar and ur having trouble remember the letters, you can memories this sentence "Eddie Ate Dynamite Good Bye Eddie" EADGBE

hey !! guitar player here. youre gonana have to cut your nails way shorter than that so you can get the right positioning and this becomes essential in the future to do more complicated things. I also recommend yt way more than any app tbh. idk if you like cigarette daydreams but i looked it up and it was the first song i learnt. you should also try doing scales like the pentatonic and practice slides, vibratos etc. i wish you luck on your journey, the beginning can be really hard and frustrating but its really worth it !!
Cigarette Daydreams was my first song too haha
I’m a bassist! I also recommend Yousician.
true, being a musician i learned quickly that I can not have long nails lol😅 once they got a bit longer than usual and it was torture to play with, and i cut them short again right away
still wating for new ep for this... I have been a guitarist for 8 years, so I find it kinda fun to watch beginners learn where they need to go and have fun tho
BRIANNAAAA I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A NEW EPISODE FOR SOO LONGGG TT
Yeahhh
personally, i think that using fender play is a really great app to use for learning how to play the guitar! it helps you with rhythm, chords, and sm more :) also, a great way to remember the string letters is ‘easter bunnies get dizzy at easter’ EBGDAE (from high e going up to low e) i hope this helps, although you posted this 6 months ago lolol :D
Hey! How’s the journey? Vlogging is such a cool way to look back and see how far you’ve come since you first started out.
I know you don’t want your nails shorts, but it’s essential to have short nails on the fretting hand so you can position your finger the correct way and won’t injured your hand (and better reach overall).
Btw it’s my first time discover you channel and you’re so pretty.
Im crying while watching this
frrr
Same omfg- “I have absolutely no experience with music whatsoever” really just killed me inside 💀
i’ve been playing guitar for about 2 years and idk it was cool to watch you starting to learn. it reminded me of when i first started
Just curious how did you improve? were like did you take irl lessons or only watched videos/browsed the internet?
@@kirstan i mostly watched youtube videos and was in a club in school for about half a year. really all you need to do is practice :) if your starting to play or even if you have for awhile practice will make you so much better and learning new skills
please, I just have to say, I love your vibes. you’re so calming and genuine. I’ve been scrolling through youtube all night, feeling a bit anxious about choosing which acoustic guitar to buy before the end of the year, but it’s reassuring to know there are others out there, like me, trying to learn an instrument from scratch.💖
But she quit lol 😭
Hey! I’m also a beginner (and self taught)! Me personally, i always use songsterr. It helped me a lot! It’s been 6 months now and i can play solo.
As for your fingers, it always started like that. You will have callus as you went on and it won’t be as hard to press :> Goodluck on your learning!
Im sorry but your pfp is so cute frfr.
My fingers are bruising bro 👴
@@Iceymeltedagain hahaha thank you! But your finger, bruising from what?
@@Steve60638 by practicing the guitar 😭 the skin there is ripping off man.
Omg how did you learn it tho
@@fablihakarim7305 you mean the guitar tablature? The lines represent the guitar, and the numbers represent the frets! At first you may be slow, but after memorising the number of the frets, it will be easy :)
my girl absolutely bought it for the aesthetic and thought she would be able to play brazil in under ten minutes 😭
edit: anyone whos thinking about playing an instrument should research it first, just to see if its worth the money and actually something that they want to learn how to do. you shouldn’t just buy a guitar because you _think_ youre gonna like it and be dedicated to it. always research. and i know shes a beginner and i was one too, but theres so many videos and websites out there that anyone can use to learn more about guitars how to play them.
long story short: PLEASE RESEARCH BEFORE BUYING AN INSTRUMENT ‼️
the stickers made me absolutely livid 😭😭
Agreed, idk what it was exactly but this video made me feel so “triggered” I guess would be the word 😭
lmao it kinda made me mad like this girl ordered a guitar and did not even know the first thing about playing,, "i really like keeping my nails long" 😭😭
omfg and the nail polish on the picks and calling them “chips”
@@Giuliana.Burruezo fr 💀
The video's so cute, makes me remember the time when I started playing the electric guitar. Been 4 years and I'm still in love with the instrument 😊
Excites and motivates me to see new people learning guitar, keep it up!!
omgg this vid was great!! I started learning around 3 years ago actually playing and playing (im self taught as well) and I am able to play a lot better now and even solos and everything, dont give up!! I hope to see a part two of this soon!! :D.
This was really cute! Reminds me of when I first got mine. Good luck on your journey of learning guitar 🥰
Hellooo! If you are new to playing electric guitar, try getting some chords and pentatonic scales in with your learning! (trust me, they really help..and yes, your fingers can sometimes get purple-ish and you'll get corns on your fingers time to time with practice, annoying smh) Good luck on your journey!
Im gonna buy a guitar probably today and im so excited! Watching this video made me even more excited!!, I literally cant waittt!! Btw i loved ur video!
This made me wanna pick up my guitar again. Keep it up, the journey is a long one but a fun one
10:00 when i started playing guitar my fingers were like that, i thought it was bad but really, it wasn’t. when you get into learning the higher stages of your guitar your fingertips should go rock hard, it’s a sign you have got the “guitar-tips” that’s what i call it, anyways lol! i know this was ages ago but i hope you have improved from here, wishing you luck fellow guitarist!!
please continue this series its so good!
She never came back to her guitar 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
its been one years, wheres the update or clickbait
She quit.
@@sukidoesstuff she wasted money if she quit
@@derallerechte5906 ikr😭
coloring a pick with nail polish is NOT optimal as it might wear away in a few months... you can try buying a new pack of picks! there are a lot of fun options :D
stickers is great but it is much painful to take them down later than to put them up ... trust I speak from experience :|
left hand nails should be shorter tbh like down to the flesh
spoiler: it is proven to be easier to have short nails on your left hand. You would to need to do weird gestures or press as hard and you will DEFINITELY not dig grooves into your fretboard... which would be a huge L if you had a more expensive guitar...
welp if you get cuts or blisters within week 1-3 it is totally normal you will grow new skin and just stick with it
it is like working out but like guitar takes a lot of dedication to move forward so... bye long nails?
for 11:11 loosen that string; take the allen wrench it gave you and adjust it to the right level. trust it would work though
if you are not sure try a few different ones and see which one should fit. but remember to loosen the string first!
for your final playing demo you should not be muting your strings too soon. it would sound a lot more fuller if you let it ring out like 0.5 seconds more :)
everyone start off somewhere imean I didn't get any progress in the first 2 years or so and I truly hope my advices and constructive criticism helped you :D
but anyways you are off to a great start! even though it was kinda shtty but it was MUCH better than having a busted d tuner or having to switch 3 guitars. I believe you will be a great musician if you keep going!
p.s. I am also a highschool student :)))))))))))))))))))
2:22 dang the white is so beautiful and the dark parts are perfect
Just a tip if you're trying to fix anything in your guitar, if it involves the strings, loosen the strings first - for safety reasons just in case.
When i first started playing guitar, i memorised the letters by this sentence: "Elephants And Donkeys Got Big Ears"
I know that you probably abandoned that guitar, but as a tip for others beginners who are watching: NAILS SHOULD BE WAY WAY WAYY SHORTER. And on the right hand especially, because you need to press the string with a tip of finger, really close to the nail. Your fingers shouldn't be flat when you're pressing the strings, they should like stand (sorrt for poor explanation)
GIRL YOU’RE SO PRETTY!!!
Just a tip for the future, but buying new gear is not always the best option, at the end of the day it all comes from your fingers and better gear wont make you play better 99% of the time. It is hard to realize this as a beginner but its a marathon not a sprint! Of course you want something you like and having a couple guitars is not an issue but its very easy to get lost in buying new gear all the time. But its also awesome seeing people learn, it is not easy, so hopefully you continue on your journey.
first step of guitar: apply stickers lol
edit- second step: paint the picks
LOLLL😭😭😅😅 totally had my priorities straight fr
@@boba_bri has the practice been going well?
why’d u buy the guitar if u we’re gonna quit after like what 3 days? Those are damn expensive😭😭
Also did it trigger anyone else when she put nail polish on the pick JUST bc it was a different color😞
yesss omg! If she was really interested in playing the guitar then she would first practice without gaf about putting stickers on the guitar yet PAINT THE PICK lmaooo!
a suggestion i have is to let the strings ring for a little more. instead of immediately going to the next string. and while i do recommend simply guitar, their tutorials are very helpful, i also recommend you learn how to read guitar tabs because you will be able to learn a lot more songs and get the basis of playing a guitar. it’s like simply guitar but instead of animated it’s typed out
Espero que logres tu meta, de verdad, se nota la paciencia y el tiempo que le pones
Y'all are shredding her apart for not continuing to play but she's clearly super young here and who gaf whether she continues to play or not
If u wanna learn how to play, your nails need to be super short because otherwise the chords aren’t going to sound clean. Hope u stick to it tho !!! Have fun
Where are the rest of the guitar learning journey videos?
did she seriously buy a brand new guitar & amp just to decorate it & then never post again. istg rich people make me sick. 😐
i know right
Ikr
lol it’s her money tho
who cares yall need to stop acting like having a guitar is so special 😭 its her money it doesn’t matter at the end of the day
I just discovered your channel and I'm obsessed!! your vlogs are so cute and you are so beautiful! I just recently started my own channel and you are such an inspiration. Im wanting to get into vlogging more and I love your style :D I also got an Electric guitar a few weeks ago, but it being the beginning of the school year, I haven't had much time to practice. Any way I just wanted to say I love your content and keep it up girl! 💕
I was like oh ep 1 is one year ago that mean there is much more then I went to ur channel and was like oh there are no more episodes 😂💗
Same here istg so disappointed smhh😭
I LOVE YOUR VOICE AND VIBE SM AND LIKE UR SO PRETTY LIKE HOW ????? 😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️
There are 2 things i would recommend u to do. 1 ur guitar has some set up problems which makes ur guitar is not as easy to play (don't worry, it happens a lot in cheaper range but it can be fixed) take the guitar to the guitar shop ask them if they can set up ur guitar which usually include some money (u can do it urself but it's not easy at all)
2 ur left hand nails are too long (i know that they should be looking good) but it's not gonna be as easy as short nails. Hope it helps! Good luck!
Go and have your guitar setup. Can be done by a friend who knows how to set up a guitar or from a guitar shop. Besides the E string bridge issue, there are other things like high/low action which might need to be fixed which is done during the setup process. Some work might need to be done to the guitar's nut to stay in tune which almost all guitars have this issue unless it is a high end custom handmade ones like the Fender custom, Suhr guitars, etc. After doing those setups, you can fully focus on the learning the guitar.
Additional tips if you are interested:
1. Use a guitar pick and practice alternate picking, etc. It's better to pick this habit now than later.
2. Get a cheap and better guitar amp like the Yamaha THR5A. Those amps comes as a free bundle with the guitar usually doesn't sound good. You can check out amps sound comparison of a good amp and a budget to see the huge difference.
Hey, no worries regarding your fingers. It's normal to shred the finger tips when you start out. Have been playing since 2006 and had a lot of bleeding fingers and strings throughout the first 4 years 🙈
Your fingers bleed??
Your playing it wrong if your fingers bleed
@@yoalnd7578 not correct, my fingers bleed every once in a while, ever heard of the phrase, if ur fingers bleed then ur playing right?
watching this reminds me of wheni first started playing, you got this!
Definitely wouldn’t recommend painting you picks with whatever because as you are playing the paint will chip and fall right onto your single coil pickups and not only will this effect your tone but also if a small chipped piece of paint falls into your pickup and melts that definitely wouldn’t be good.
HAHAA I THINK SHE GAVE UP
she did😭😭
she sure did
acrylic nails defeated her 😢lol
Blud abandoned this guitar
nah she quit lmaoooooooooo
ur musics rlly good wtf
When she puts those first stickers.
My brains enters in rage mod
ikr
What's wrong with stickers? It's cute
real.
@@bubblysivan_Official In my opinion, stickers completely ruin the aesthetics of the guitar, imagine that later these stickers get dirty and lose their colors
i learned how to play guitar through playing a song and looking through its chords and what the fingers position in on ultimate guitar (yup, i memorized eadgbe). i do play bass too, but i only read tabs for now (i have covers on my channel), i'm doing the same thing i did on guitar, so i can memorized the chords too. i'm still learning, but by that, i can play any song with just looking by its chords.
The first and last episode of her electric guitar journey. I wonder how she's doing now?
omg this video is really cozy and nice!! im hopefully getting a guitar soon and beabadoobee is also someone i wanna learn to play
any update on the guitar learning?! i'm learning too! lol i love your stickers!💕
"Episode 1" Correct me if im wrong but I bet you bought this and never used it anymore lmao. No offense
she hasn't posted ab it in a year so ur probably right but idk
@@Luxxurmom Thats why i posted this comment haha. "Episode 1" So does episode 2 take another year or just never used the guitar? Maybe just bought it to waste money for something aesthetic lmao
@@Hajin_krno cuz it’s so weird how she didn’t mention ONE rock band that inspired her to start playing???
I bought a guitar 3 years ago and im just starting to learn because i kinda got motivation
@@mcrmakesmedanceshe mentioned beabadoobee if that's valid
such a cool guitar! also if you watch anime I recommend watching Bocchi the rock. really inspired me to play guitar
MY GUY ITS AN ELECTRIC PLEASEEEEEE CONNECT IT TO THE AMP
u just motivated me to clean my room and study. thank you.
2nd ep?
When i saw your channel for the first time i was like omgosh she, s soo pretty fr but later iam getting a guiter on my bday only 14 days left soo i was leraning and your my one of my fav youtuber 😢when i saw your video i was like omgosh iam soo obessed rn ❤funfact:i watched this video 5 times
Blud definitely never played it again
for sure lmao
for reall
fr
LMMAOO THE WAY UR RIGHT ABT IT
Fr
i love this video, it is first time i am seenig ur video btf and it is grate and funny i love it also ur editing is awsome love ittt
I remember the first time I had to cut my really long nails which almost brought me to tears. I tried to keep my nails as long as I could but some things must be sacrificed. And now I have absolutely no nails cus the key to sounding better is holding the chords right and short nails help a lot.
Short nails though 💀😭😭
its good you cut your nails early on. Ive been playing guitar for a few years and trimming your left hand (hand you use on the frets) the nails can hit the other strings which you dont want. you can keep them long on the other hand however as its useful for finger picking!
WE LUV YOU BRIIII
love u too stiff 😇🤲💓💓
omg, the way you hold the knife is SCARY. Btw, how is the guitar progress going? Don't give up!
Lmao we can all agree it's fun at the beginning but utter hell learning. 😭
It’s great that she was inspired by bea and wanted to start playing as well! But if you want to become good you gotta practice, and I learned that the hard way because like her, (I assume) I got a guitar to feel cool and learn something new but realized how hard it was and that I needed to seriously practice so I gave up easily. 1 school year later and I began to take real classes and want to improve.
In short, never give up if you truly love something!!!
banger pfp
@@alexnorette LETS GOOOOO THANKSBRO
been 2 years well what is the progress
she 100% only was interested in the „aesthetic“, not in actually playing the guitar
@@miataenjoyer ya i think so to and like who puts those stickers on the guitar😩
@@miataenjoyerwhy do you care? 🤷♀️
@Oddi3s.Odditi3s because it's such a fake/poser thing to do lol. The fact that she hasn't uploaded the next part of this "series" in 2 years just shows she wasn't serious about learning. She should've just been honest and admitted she wanted the guitar for aesthetic purposes.
I've learned the bass guitar in my music class last year. And this year, if I am still in the music class, I plan on learning the electric guitar!
you'll get the hang of using an electric guitar. just make sure that if you're using a guitar strap that doesnt hook on like guitar locks, then you gotta buy guitar locks for that kind of guitar strap. someday you'll be able to play like slash or eddie van halen haha
A lot of people are hating on her for putting stickers on her guitar, but she bought it with her money. She can do whatever she wants with it as long as she’s actually using it and she is
Giiirl we are still waiting 🙎🏻♀️
You’re waiting in vain, she quit
@@masondam168 naaah why?
@@meh-ot7th seemed pretty obvious she probably just wanted it as a decoration lmfao
This was impressive to watch. Did you continue this quest further? Would love to have an update.
and yes its normal for the beginning that you finger gets little cuts
but your fingers skin is getting harder thats making it much easier to play with out the hurt
Wait so does it hurt ?
@@nala2685 yes
@@nala2685 not that much
the more you practice at the beginning, the most you have to know to grow up in the guitar, its funny and some times you gonna be frustrated, almost with those chords like F, just prepare your mind to punch those walls down 🌻🌻
girlyyyyyyyyyyyyyy the color of the picks sometime show the thickness of them!! so i dont think its a rlly good idea painting them...
I enjoyed watching this video because im thinking of buying one electric guitar because the sound is awesome
whyyyyy on earth would you paint the picks, it’s gonna chip off immediately
Bro that's literally what I was thinking, such a bad idea 😩
This may not be a part of the video, but your voice is just so calming😊
How is your guitar journey going? I don't see any new video about guitar on your channel
I can hear Chase Atlantic playing in the background when she was putting stickers 😮 she has good music taste 😌👍
are we gonna get an update 😭😭
I doubt it
I'll tell my dad to buy this at my birthday! I hope he buy it for me❤
