my journey learning electric guitar | episode no. 1 🎸 

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 Edit: it's been a whole year im so shocked about the amount of likes I got thanks you all so much 🙏🙏🙏😭😭😭😭

i’ve been pretty unmotivated to play guitar as of late but after watching this video i had a solo jam sesh and it was nice playing again :,) thanks for sharing

Woman. You just got me motivated to study, clean my room, and play my electric guitar as if it was a reward for doing my chores 😨

Imagine she comes back soon and outshreds everyone

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. 😅

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: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tnVuvoj3WXs.html

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 just discovered ur channel and I’m actually obsessed with it! having a electric guitar is my dream rn 🫶🏾🫶🏾

I've had my acoustic guitar in my closet for three years, learning it is difficult for me and never really learned much. I've been watching videos for motivation cause I really want to push myself to learn since I'm graduating out of high school soon. I'm subscribing cause your amazing nice personality and editing skills are a vibe I need in my life. Awsome video and keep being yourself!

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 !!

its been one years, wheres the update or clickbait

You guys who play guitar literally inspire me so much no cap. I want to buy a electric guitar so baddd. Anyways new sub! :)))

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...

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

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!

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.

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

Excites and motivates me to see new people learning guitar, keep it up!!

This was really cute! Reminds me of when I first got mine. Good luck on your journey of learning guitar 🥰

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.

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.

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 😊

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!

Espero que logres tu meta, de verdad, se nota la paciencia y el tiempo que le pones

At first i thought this is gonna be a nice video that ill appreciate as a fellow acoustic and el. guitar player for 3 years and i was so excited and i find no part 2, so i realized she just bought it to look cool or like a celebrity and realized that its not that easy, so she gave up. Her life, her moneyy but its kinda sad, would be a great series.

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

BRIANNAAAA I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A NEW EPISODE FOR SOO LONGGG TT

please continue this series its so good!

GIRL YOU’RE SO PRETTY!!!

This made me wanna pick up my guitar again. Keep it up, the journey is a long one but a fun one

watching this reminds me of wheni first started playing, you got this!

first step of guitar: apply stickers lol edit- second step: paint the picks

I LOVE YOUR VOICE AND VIBE SM AND LIKE UR SO PRETTY LIKE HOW ????? 😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️

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 :)))))))))))))))))))

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.

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.

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! 💕

2:22 dang the white is so beautiful and the dark parts are perfect

omg this video is really cozy and nice!! im hopefully getting a guitar soon and beabadoobee is also someone i wanna learn to play

Blud abandoned this guitar

u just motivated me to clean my room and study. thank you.

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

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.

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

Tip: I’m a self taught guitar player and I didn’t use things like the weird simply guitar apps or whatever. If you’re broke like me I suggest watching people’s beginner lessons off of RU-vid. One person I recommend is Marty music.

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)

"Episode 1" Correct me if im wrong but I bet you bought this and never used it anymore lmao. No offense

Where are the rest of the guitar learning journey videos?

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!!

this was so great to watch

nah she quit lmaoooooooooo

hey! its super cool you're interested in learning the guitar. i made two BIG mistakes when i was a beginner too and i'd love to give you some advices so you can learn from MY mistakes

This may not be a part of the video, but your voice is just so calming😊

TUNing in to your great journey ahead!

MY GUY ITS AN ELECTRIC PLEASEEEEEE CONNECT IT TO THE AMP

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

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.

When she puts those first stickers. My brains enters in rage mod

can we get an update? i wanna see how much you improved!

THE BUNNY I CANT 💀💀😭😭✋

Trust me Ive been on and off with my 6 string but I picked it back up about 5 days ago and I have way more knowledge since I'm committed now , could almost memorize an entire song now

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!

Giiirl we are still waiting 🙎🏻‍♀️

Tive q corta as minhas tbm, quando comecei a tocar .. e ainda tinha aquelas pelinhas em baixo da unha q doeu muito .... mas cm o tempo elas sumiram, gracas a Deus .. no começo sofri muito ....nao desista, vale muito apena ... eu toco violão, ukulele ... 😊❤

Omg i finally found a video that will give me insperation to learn to play gutair again!

Girl where are u now 😭😭

any update on the guitar learning?! i'm learning too! lol i love your stickers!💕

I enjoyed watching this video because im thinking of buying one electric guitar because the sound is awesome

omg, the way you hold the knife is SCARY. Btw, how is the guitar progress going? Don't give up!

WE LUV YOU BRIIII

I'd love an update on your guitar-learning journey bri

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

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!

no part 2 LMAO she gave up hahahaha

The cutting the nails part is so relatable :S my two hobbies are nail art and guitar

no one : what vlog do you want??? me : this✨✨✨

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 🌻🌻

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 😂💗

Lmao we can all agree it's fun at the beginning but utter hell learning. 😭

i need #2 💙

I’m learning how to play electric guitar too! Actually easier than I thought it would be

When i first started playing guitar, i memorised the letters by this sentence: "Elephants And Donkeys Got Big Ears"

Woooo guitarist added to ur resume 💯

YOU ARE JUST LIKE MEEEEE!!! this is the first time i clicked onto one of your vids and i was like wow...She sounds like me and she listens to beabaddoobee. Prolly just me in another form idk. But i love your vids and it is very well put togethor good job!

I'll tell my dad to buy this at my birthday! I hope he buy it for me❤

2nd ep?

The first and last episode of her electric guitar journey. I wonder how she's doing now?

Today I was just talking about electric guitars with my mom, I will take this video as a sign lol

I LOVE BEABADOOBEE YOURE SO REAL !!!!1

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.

This was impressive to watch. Did you continue this quest further? Would love to have an update.

You actually motivated me

i really enjoyed this series so far where is part 2

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

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 🙈

I just got my guitar 3 days ago. I will also post my guitar journey and progress as often as possible. Let's see who can progress faster :D

As a guitar player myself, putting stickers on a guitar is the most painful thing you can do and painting the picks when playing will just corrode the strings even faster but being honest it is awesome to see other people showing interest in the guitar

the icecream looked delicious 😋
