What do you guys think?

I’m a 25-year-old guy and I’ve been playing acoustic guitar for about a year. I mostly know chords, strumming, and a little lead, but I don’t know much about fingerstyle.

Right now I mostly just doodle around on the guitar without really knowing what I should learn next.

I recorded this simple fingerstyle piece. Any tips on how I can improve, or suggestions for songs/exercises and a good learning path?

Would really appreciate any feedback!

I’m a 25-year-old guy and have been playing guitar for about a year. I’m comfortable with regular barre chords, but I’m struggling with Major 7 barre chords. The D string always ends up muted for me, and I can’t seem to get it to ring cleanly.

Any technical tips or adjustments that helped you guys? Different fingering or thumb position? Or is it just a matter of practice?

Would love to know how you play them.

Edit :: My pinky is not being used and I am trying to play the Dominant 7 chord.

I'm a 25 y/o guy who started taking guitar seriously a few months ago. I practice almost daily on acoustic, mainly working on chords, scales, lead playing and improvisation.

My fingertips have started developing calluses, but sometimes the skin gets dry and peels a little. Finger pain isn't much of an issue anymore, but I'm not sure if I should keep playing or take a day or two off when this happens.

Also, my pinky has almost no callus 😂

For experienced players, does this look normal? Any tips for building and maintaining calluses without damaging the skin?
