In addition to what has been said, visualize yourself playing the guitar just as if you were really doing it! I’m brad new to guitar but I know it works for other skills.

I just ended up buying new strings since cleaning them didn’t seem to fix the problem with out of tune notes at certain frets. My guitar was a display model and I have no idea how long it was sitting there, how much it had been played, what kind of strings it has or anything. I bought some coated D’Addario strings. If I made a mistake by getting new strings too soon it’s only a $9 mistake so no big deal.

Thanks everyone!

After more research Im going to clean them first. haha Didn’t know I was going to have to do that either.

After doing a little research I had no idea that strings would need to be changed as often as they do! I’ve had my guitar for a little over a month and have put in over 30 practice sessions, so maybe the strings do in fact need changed.
I have been finding some odd notes recently when practicing and for the life of me I couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong because I appeared to be holding the chord properly. So, hopefully worn strings is the problem.
Should I spring for the more expensive Elixir strings? Supposedly they last a lot longer?

Thanks for the replies. When I tune the open strings and then test the rest of the notes, they all seem to be too high. I’ll try getting new strings.

Thanks, that’s what I was thinking.

Got it! Thanks!

Hi crabby! Yeah, sometimes it makes a different sound when I take the finger off and other times it’s like it stops the vibration when I take my finger off. Is the later supposed to happen? Doesn’t sound right to me.

Awesome! Thanks, I will give that a try!

Makes sense! Thanks!
