The advice in this video is priceless and should be obligatory for all beginners! I started learning guitar in my mid 60s and did the spider exercises and 1 minute chord changes but would have much preferred the 3 finger spiders as I found it a huge stretch to get my pinky down hard enough to play a clear note, hence it took ages to work up to the top fret! Will be trying the 3 finger spider tomorrow though as older joints need good warm up exercises! Thanks for a great video, Bob.

For example for a change of the chords E to D, you just slide with your index finger from the first fret to first to the third fret without lifting the index finger . The other fingers will then follow to form a D chord. Cheers Stephan

Think I mentioned this before when you spoke about the Em chord in another video. I play it 2nd and 3rd but I can see your point in playing 1st and 2nd as you can move to the G chord easier, as you demonstrated. Even though I play Em with 2nd and 3rd fingers, I can also play with 1st and 2nd fingers so I've been trying it out. At the moment I'm not playing a full G only a G6 two finger chord when I move from Em to G. However I still feel like I'm getting somewhere (slowly I have to admit) and it's definitely down to you not pushing to do a full G or C or any other difficult chords.
