    Oh and I just wanted to reply to not achieving a clean C chord in 13 days:

    Getting clean chords is a tough get and the time it takes is going to vary from person to person. Children will learn much faster
    but adults like me for example:

    C 6 months

    D 3 months

    D- 3 months

    E 4 months

    E- 1 months

    F mini 15 months

    F barre 12 months

    G 5 months

    B7 5 months

    These are approximations and I am not talking about spending 3 seconds to form the chord and then strum, that’s not how we play guitar. This represents the (concurrent=learning simultaneously and not in succession) time when I could transition into the chord within half a second and get a clear sound (no thud) at least 75% of the time. I still miss today, nearly 2 years in from when I started playing, but less and less nowadays.

    I left out the A chord it took me quite a while to do the 3 finger A chord, about 2 months. I usually barre it now.

    The A- is very close to the E chord, but I got it down quicker. The E seemed good, didn’t even realize that I was muting the D string.
