Are You Truly Ready to Learn How to Play the Guitar?
Yep, you would be surprised at what you can learn from just a few minutes of your time. The guitar has been around for centuries, and during this period there have been some magnificent professionals to give us some of the ultimate sounds of the music industry.
If you want to learn how to play the guitar, it will take some patience, dedication, and commitment on your part. You will also have to get used to some physical effects from playing the guitar as well.
For example, you will develop calluses on your fingers, from strumming the strings. Your hands may cramp a little bit when you start learning the different chords, because they're not used to being in those positions. Your shoulders may get sore and tired too.
It doesn't matter who your idol is at playing the guitar, everyone started at the beginning. They had to deal with everything you're going to have to deal with each time you play.
When you first learn how to play the guitar, it's important to understand the tuning process. If you can't figure this out, then your going to hear sounds that are as bad as Mike Ditka's singing "Take Me Out to The Ball Game" at Wrigley Field (it was horrendous). You have the lower E string, the A string, the D string, the G string, and the B string. These are arranged from the bottom of the guitar to the top. Then of course you have the high E string, which should be tuned last.
Now, you can manually tune your guitar, or you can pay a music store to do it for you. Obviously this will depend on your preference so we'll leave the decision in your hands. However, it's important to keep in mind that you can spend a lot of money having it done for you. Then again, they may do it for free. Just ask, and they'll tell you. We still recommend doing it yourself so you get a better understanding of the sounds it will make for you.
The last thing to do is start reading the guitar tabs. There are all kinds of tutorials on the Internet, so it won't be hard to find something. Just position your fingers on each string and strum the guitar using the other hand. Granted this will take some practice, but it will be well worth it in the end. Just play easier chords in the beginning to get a better feel for everything. The simple ones are C, G, and A.
Alright! You're now ready to play the guitar. Did it take you five minutes to read this and position the fingers? Hopefully it did, and now you have yourself a new hobby. Happy Playing! - 23812
