Hi, I’m a beginner who just started learning the F barre chord.

I can’t get string 1 and 2 to ring clearly without applying insane force. Hmm I guess I have to just keep practicing until I can make it ring clearly without much effort.

How was your F barre chord journey? I’m sure experienced players here can enlighten my path.

    It’s a pain in the ass for sure. I got a lot better by playing F# or G cleanly and easily then transitioning down to F. I did a few strums on each back and forth while watching TV. After doing that for a few weeks I was able to play F much better.

    I still flub it if I haven’t played it for too long but it comes back fairly quickly.
