How To Make Your Guitar Chords Sound Better For Beginners

Looking for how to make your guitar chords sound better? If you are new to the guitar and are suffering from muted guitar strings, I have a great guitar trick for you to try the next time you pick up your guitar.

When I work with beginner guitar players, they often times have trouble with getting their chords to sound nice all the time. Often times their finger are not perpendicular to the fretboard but rather sit a slight downward angle, which mutes the strings below that finger

In the video below, I will discuss my simple pen trick that you can use to train you fingers to place your fingers better so that you have a crisper sound and avoid muting string with bad finger placement.

Give the below video a watch. Make sure you have a pen, market or pencil handy.
