    Playing guitar recently

    I've been playing guitar for a while, and I've only started with power chords back in March of this year.

    Coming here from JustinGuitar

    Hi, I'm new here. My name is Antto, and I started playing guitar around February of 2021. I was nearly finished with JustinGuitar's beginner course grade 3 (last one), but he's still in the middle of uploading videos for the modules which I don't see being done until around the beginning of next...
