Some really great questions came up in this RGS live Q&A Session! We talked about how to find the chords to go with a song you are composing, how to strum better on the upstroke, how to hit the strings better when playing scales with a pick, and how to play chord changes cleaner, and faster, plus many more!
I know a lot of you may have similar questions in mind and that the answers to these fantastic questions will probably help a lot of you improve your own guitar playing.
