Office Hours, Q&A

I'm trying something new - each question is time-stamped for ease of use.

Question 1: Rod asks about V of V chords and if I'm going to do lessons on making chords to a melody instead of making a melody to chords!

Question 2: Quinn ask about proper left hand placement and pressure and I give some ideas on how to double check your technique so you don't hurt yourself in the long run.

Question 3: Davin asks about 6/4 chords leading to a discussion about the difference between slash chords and inversions.

Question 4: Greg asks what I use for making my PDFs (Adobe Illustrator) and writing on them on my iPad Pro (Goodnotes)

Question 5: Russ asks about how to practice switching between chords and rhythm in a blues context - I recommended a backing track like this one. 

Question 6: John asks for a simple way to play an F# half diminished.
