Second Guitar Class

Today in my guitar class I learnt the first half of Pink Panther!
The first part of the song is made up of four power chords, repeated three times over with a brief gap between each one. I then learnt various notes on the top strings to add to the song.
I also learnt the right hand finger positions when playing guitar, the importance of rhythm, etc.

It was difficult to press down hard enough to produce a clear sound (an annoying buzzing sound occurs if you don't exert enough force). Five minutes into the lesson my fingers already had large dents in them from the strings! However they didn't hurt, and I look forward to them hardening over time.

The Pink Panther

I practiced the part of the song over and over, inspired by Job's flawless examples. I improved greatly over the course of our lesson, and by the end could successfully play half of Pink Panther.
Job said that it was the first song that he had learnt to play, and that when he had learnt it he had been far younger than me!

I am very happy with my progress today, and it feels good to be able to play a song (even if it does need a few improvements!)!

I am very excited to complete this song next friday!
