now i've heard that it's better to learn to position all 3 fingers first, hover over the strings and then press down with all fingers at once. 


what do you guys think about that method? Should i be doing that instead of one finger at a time? Or can i keep doing that and with time i'll be able to frett with all fingers at once?


 


thanks for any pointers!

I think it just comes naturally as you progress through the course, you will get to a point where you just cannot keep up with the speed of the chord changes as the BMP increases when you progress through the lessons, I guess your fingers kinda naturally start to try and keep up with the BPM with practice, and then finally bam your doing it without thinking about it!   

Then you learn a new chord lol
