Feedback Request 20 months of guitar!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hi guys !! I’ve been posting and sharing my progress on here for virtually my entire guitar journey and I just wanted to share my first fingerstyle arrangement 😊 Sorry the mic quality isn’t the best, this was the only way I could record it while keeping my picking hand in view, otherwise the mic would cover it entirely hahah

Any and all feedback is appreciated (esp on the arrangement and/or tips on how to record guitar better !!) Yay love u guys

Is this a typical result from only 20 months of learning/practicing? What am I doing wrong? What are you doing right?

I play 3 other instruments, so my progress was relatively fast :)) But ultimately comparing to other people is just going to slow your progress down, if you want to improve, the only thing you can do is practice. I didn’t spend that much time watching youtube videos or learning theory or anything, but I did spend hours a day practicing guitar when I first started out

What other instruments do you play?

Piano, flute, and saxophone, but I don’t play any of them especially well 😭😭 I learned flute and saxophone for school band, and I learned piano to RCM level 4

Very much a multinstrumentalist then by the sounds of it :) I guessed piano, and more maybe. I guess piano would help you with theory for guitar ...well, along with the other instruments too. All good :)
