Dr. Proletariat Gets His Rock On: Day 1-3

Day 1: Given the lull in research and evil doing due to the construction of the labs I figured it was finally time to learn to play the guitar. To that end I picked up this lovely Fender Stratocaster. I figured out strumming a bit and figured out a G-Chord. Holding the thing is still a bit of a problem. Still, for the first few hours of actually trying to play a guitar it went pretty well.
Day 2: Worked out holding the guitar better. Got the G-Chord even better. Also worked on being able to lift my fingers on and off while strumming. I still haven’t gotten the left-hand down.
Day 3: Worked on the G-Chord more. Started on the D-Chord. I think I’ve got my left-hand form a lot better. The excercise on hitting the sixth string with all four fingers in succession did a decent job. Also adjusted the straps some more and that helped quite a bit. Probably work on the C-Chord tomorrow. I also need to actually work more on being able to actually move my fingers from chord to chord.
