Hi Everyone,

My son expressed interest in playing guitar. So for his upcoming birthday (16 years) I bought him a YAMAHA APX600.

I've always wanted to learn to play guitar when i was young but stopped at air guitar. So i decided to embark on the journey with my son. I got myself a second hand IBANEZ GIO GRX70QA. Got GUITARTRICKS and ROCKSMITH REMASTERED.

I have no musical experience and my brain struggles with the words octave, chords, etc.

I think that will come with time but what i'm really having issues with is my fingers. I can't get 4 fingers on 4 frets to do the "spider" exercise.

What do you recommend I do?
