So I just got a guitar and am trying to practice different chords but I feel like I am missing something HUGE because it makes no sense to me, when you play the chords, aren’t you only able to make a cool sound by putting your hand down all the strings at once? Because it makes a unique sound by the certain strings being silenced right? I’d think so, but I’m confused because I see so much videos of people playing chords while like strumming the guitar strings too, how does that work? Maybe I was doing the chords wrong, but I don’t think so because I made sure to put my fingers at the end of the frets and press as hard as the articles and yt videos say so.. I don’t know what to do..
