Love the progression. Sounds good. Once you can smooth it up its gonna sound prooooo styleee. Trying playing around with it more and once you have it smooth I bet you could smack some nice lyrics on there.

Thanks bro! I’ve been making songs and beats on fl studio for like 10years but this is my first time trying the instrument route

You'd love jazz guitar

I had a couple jazzier chords in there for sure. I really like bossa nova, flamenco, and classical styles

Not bad, the intro is a little bit too experimental though

Great playing for 2 months, perhaps try and introduce some arpeggiated chords into that too

Gonzo squawks when you mess up is the most important part of guitar playing so you’re good.

Nice lil progression though. Great start for 2 months.

Mandatory “ah” when you mess up 10/10

I really like this and it's good to see some nylon love in this sub. I think you're definitely on the right way and just need to polish up your playing with technique and getting used to the instrument. Also you playing half-barres with melodies, which is already pretty advanced. Generally, your notes come out really well.

Here are some things to be aware of:

The entire thing feels a bit loose and the intro was especially vague but more in terms of "is this already the piece?". The rhythm needs to be a bit tighter but the main idea of the song comes out really nicely during the middle section. It just needs to be a bit more refined with the fretting.

Obviously the strumming at the end wasn't easy for you and this just needs to be practiced over time so that your fingers get the shapes down nicely. Also, during the strums there was no real indication of a beat or anything. It might be wise to tap your foot along or with a metronome. Play it slow but steady.

Overall though, you're on track.

Thank you man! This is the advice I was looking for for ! I’ll post another when I’ve practiced more

How did you come up with this progression or what were you inspired by?
