i should probably try to “properly” learn guitar at some point, does anyone want to point me to some guide which i will then proceed to more or less completely ignore despite my stated intentions
at this rate i will rediscover every movable chord spanning three frets from first principles and fluently play all my favourite melodies by ear long before i learn, uh… how to hold a guitar; how to use a pick; how to strum; pitch class names of fret positions; chord names;
(can you tell i am having fun)

All of Paul's stuff is quite good imo, if you like his vibe I'd suggest looking up more of his stuff, it's usually pretty "to the point" without too much fluff
I'd love to talk guitar or music theory anytime btw :3
@hikari I think the most common way to learn guitar is to learn how to play songs you like.
