I've been aware for quite a while now that some day I'm gonna have to tackle the F chord. It's a right of passage for every guitar player.
I've been putting it off and putting it off for ages now, but I've finally decided now's the time. Today I started devoting 15 minutes to it, well I'm actually starting on the fifth fret which is an A barre, when I master it there I'll move down a fret until I finally master the F.
It's really really tough, I just can't get the b string to ring out, I know that's normal so I'm not too worried, although it feels like I'll never be able to do it, my barre finger keeps lifting, crooking more like just above the b string, and it aches really bad in the muscle above the thumb. Again, this is all normal so hopefully the strength will build up soon. I'm gonna try devote 15 mins a day to it, I reckon I'll nail it within a couple of weeks.
