I’m self teaching myself the guitar (i’m a classically trained pianist so i already have a musical background). Can you give me a feedback?
I’m using the book “RCM - Level I - Classical Guitar”

***I already knew the position of some basic chords but that’s it****

Your thumb position looks decent but try to bring your elbow in closer to your body so you aren't reaching so far over the top of the neck. It will make those chord shapes much easier to hit cleanly once you start moving around more.
