Hi all, I’m in the beginning steps of learning guitar. hands are very broken in, chords sound good, I know a few from 1st to 5th but I wanted a better understand of the progressions.
if it better to follow c, d , e, e# etc… or c, g, a? or would it depend on the music? I’m focusing heavy on bluegrass. Doc Watson is a big focus for my end style, or Billy strings.
i currently practice/play about 4 hours a day 7 days a week. (a lot I know) my focus is flat picking and finger style mostly rather then traditional strumming.
does any.one have and good guides or books I should read up on for how to do good proper cord progressions? even a simple info graphic that is easily understandable for a beginner?
I’m focusing mostly right now on chord runs. C is memorized and working on getting some others that can meld with the c run.
good to know, I’m currently not even trying to play songs specifically, but more just have good sounding chord progressions to get familiar with the guitar itself.

I am also learning like Billy did, and obviously doc Watson… eyes closed. I want to feel the guitar and music, not rely on my visual senses.
it’s going to be a long road of learning. already at the addiction phase. perhaps I will try to get some songs under my belt that encompass a few chords that I already know to help me with my rhythm game
