About this lesson

✅ ▶ https://www.andyguitar.co.uk/courses?campaign=free-beginner-course-videos&source=youtube ◀ NEW Beginner Acoustic Course Here! Capo used in this video ▶ https://shop.andyguitar.co.uk/products/andy-guitar-signature-capo Find out what a capo is and why you need one! I recommend Trigger-type Capos as they're super easy to fit on to the guitar and grip all the strings very well. The Capo also gives us a great advantage when learning guitar, plus allowing us to learn way more songs! It's not just for Beginners though, once you have a Capo you'll find yourself using it throughout your whole guitar journey. Some songs, such as Hotel California or Wonderwall, use the Capo as part of that guitar riff so you can't actually play along to the original recording without one. What we'll discover is more common though, is we'll use the Capo to help us change key easily and by doing this we keep all the same chord shapes too! 🎬 SUBSCRIBE TO ANDY GUITAR on YouTube http://goo.gl/nDtSmJ 🙏 Help support Andy's free videos by donating https://www.paypal.com/biz/fund?id=J3SP58NUHS55U ************************************************************************** ✅ FREE 10 DAY TRIAL of ALL my online courses (limited time!) ✅ ▶ https://www.andyguitar.co.uk/membership (risk-free for 60 days, and your first 10 days cost nothing)
