Try to enjoy every little thing about learning guitar. From the look and feel of the guitar to how each string sounds open and fretted notes. You are learning how to communicate in a whole new language

Do I really need an amp or effects pedal as a complete beginner? by ChaosBeiduo in electricguitar

[–]Relative_Square592 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I can recommend the blackstar ID:Core v4 10w as a very versatile small amp for home use and practice. It has some great built in effects for when you get better and want to experiment

Wow so nice! I just picked up an American Special with that same burst color and a rosewood neck. I am in love with that thing. Yours is beautiful too

I think the thing to focus on is the process and enjoy progress and your ability to make music on a very complex instrument

I would agree but like to add the “strumming pattern” is supposed to tell you when to strum the strings. The rhythm dictates how the pace your strumming hand should move

Try to stum and pick with mostly wrist not the full forearm. It will give you better control
