The Boxer (Authentic Simon & Garfunkel) - Guitar Lesson/Tutorial

[liftyfingers]

Hi, thanks for your reply and I look forward to seeing it up here. I have kind of got it from listening and watching your left hand. But it's the change up from G, to G7 etc. that gets me lost. I can hear it, I just cannot find it!! Lol. But I agree, with your earlier comment, slowly at first, enjoy the learning, that's what works best!! Thanks again.

@liftyfingers Sorry. Got confused. There is a later instrumental part and I thought you meant that. I'll get the G to G7 down for you soon.

Hi, great video, I was wondering if you could do the same for the verse and maybe put it up here? I have got the intro nailed. But from then on, it's all spaghetti fingers.

Many thanks for the video.

@liftyfingers I'll have to re-learn it all so it may take a little while. (I haven't played this as part of a set with a singer for decades so have forgotten most of it.) I'll get back to you when it's done. Thanks for dropping by.

Perhaps I should correct that:

... stick to doing a few things well rather than many badly.

Thank you to all for your kind comments.

The secret is to practise slowly and accurately and build up speed later. Try to enjoy every stage of learning and stick to doing few things well rather than many badly.

Excellent. Best around and I agree looks authentic to Paul Simon approach.
