In the first episode of Season 2 of the Kirklees Guitar School Podcast, we tackle one of the most common frustrations for beginner and intermediate guitarists:
“Why do I keep muting or buzzing the wrong strings when I play chords?”

We explore the root causes of this issue—hand position, finger curvature, pressure points, and neck angle—and share practical strategies to fix it. Whether you're struggling with open chords or barre chords, this episode will give you tools to clean up your playing and get rid of that unwanted string noise.

You’ll also learn:
✅ How to train your fingers for better independence
✅ What to watch out for in your fretting technique
✅ Exercises to improve chord clarity and control
✅ Tips for stopping your fingers from accidentally brushing or muting nearby strings

Perfect for players wanting to clean up their rhythm playing and sound more professional.
