I’m up to chord transitioning and strumming without stopping at the same time.

I agree about doing it one finger at a time. I started doing that before I watched this video earlier today and it’s getting better faster. Everyone that says to just jump straight to the chord I feel is jumping steps in the process.

And 10 years ago after 35 years of playing $300, 12 string guitars because they carried the tune longer. I learned that it is the strings that you don’t touch that sustains the cord during the cord change. Thanks for the memories! I purchased a used martin JD 15 with a broken neck that I fixed in 30 minutes off of eBay for $300, I learned sustainability. Pluck one string and count to 10 if you can still hear it on 10 then that is a good guitar that will sustain the cord you just played while you are finger placing and thinking of the next cord to play. I’m still a student though. Thanks!

I must be wrong for doing it the opposite. I always jump to the highest notes first, that way if I am a bit slow my first strum can at least hit the right notes as my other fingers get there in time for the second strum. So that if I am going to a g chord, and am late with the lower note, at least I am still playing a g chord with just the high e string fingered for the g. I strum just the four strings the first strum until my fingers are placed. It always made sense to me.

I've just started playing again after not picking a guitar up after over 10 years.. I'm fine with most chord transitions it's just the barre chords that take me longer to switch to... also learning moonlight sonata and it has quite a few barre chords haha

No, super powers, my friend. And everybody had problems switching chords. It’s just that people don’t remember that they do because it goes by so quickly. It will for you as well. Watch my video on transitioning chords in this series. My gift to you: www.yourguitarsage.com/30
