I started about a month ago ; never played anything in my life before [i'm 49 and considered myself too old to learn].

We live in Dubai and Summer here is brutal ; I always wanted to play but didn't realise a structured course such as GT existed.

Summer in the house and lerning with Lisa is AWESOME.

I've got the 5 power chords in the bank, just now trying to improve my transitioning.

I've been putting in a couple of hours a day on average, but some transitions are so much easier than others.

Can anyone tell me ; are G Major and D Major the really tough ones to transition too, as those are the ones where I stall a wee bit.

Any affirmation of the above will make me feel better ! I'm wondering why G is so hard to get too....???

Thanks in advance,

Simon.

PS ; I'm preferrring the "pinky" G as it reduces my finger movement....
