Time spent learning/practising: 47.5hrs
Status: Learning major scales, barre chords and songs

I did 30 minutes today and I am starting to improve on my chord changes I think, I did manage to get to 130bpm using the same method as before, so that is an improvement, but I think now I need to practice the whole 4 beats of strumming with one chord and then changing, rather than doing one strum then changing chord straight afterwards, that will make it more realistic and as I improve then my ability to play the song will too. I have managed to learn to do the 6 string barre chord of F, well G as I am further down the neck than the F, but only in that shape where other fingers hold down the middle strings, by taking pressure off the middle I can increase it on the high E, low E and B strings, thus making the chord sound cleanly, but that doesn’t help me for the G7 6 string barre chord etc where I need those middle strings pressing down…
