How did u learn to play guitar?

Question by David K: How did u learn to play guitar?
Just wondering if you took lessons, listened to music you liked and learned to play the tabs for it, books, DVDs, etc. I am wanting to learn and cant figure out the best way of doing it, Ive had numerous people say to just read the tabs and only try to play the music you like, then Ive had some disagree with that. So, how did u learn to play and what kind of music do you play?

Answer by TG
If you only play songs through tabs, you will only know how to play other peoples songs, and if you want to write your own, they become ripoffs of other riffs. Learn guitar theory, and you will be able to write better, and improvise better. If i need a solo on the spot, I pick a scale, a key, and roll with it

How long would you estimate it would take me to learn to play guitar?

Question by Nini J.: How long would you estimate it would take me to learn to play guitar?
i already read music, and i play trumpet so treble clef is a piece of pie. i’m going to be taking lessons at my school with a rented guitar starting august. Will i fair pretty well and catch on quickly? music has always been a talent for me. my dad can sing and my mom can too. i caught on to trumpet in a month. what’s your estimate?

Answer by guiterguy219
It depends so much on so many things, it’s impossible to make an accurate estimate. It’s not like you will ever be done learning to play, because you can always get better. It sounds like you should catch on quickly though.

Another thing that would help is to learn TAB so that you can play songs at home that are written in TAB. Ultimate-Guitar.com has songs written in TAB or chords.

I hope you enjoy guitar. Good luck and have fun!

Answer by Noodle
There are tons of decent guitar for beginners ranging from $ 100 – $ 200, but most likely the strings and pick ups have poor quality. You need a tuner.

What are guitar requirements to learn before taking acoustic fingerstyle / picking lessons?

Question by Trilliu Bizniz: What are guitar requirements to learn before taking acoustic fingerstyle / picking lessons?
Such as Travis, Chet Atkins, solo finger style playing all melody, chords, bass lines at the same time.

Are there any requirements or knowledge needed?

Best answer:

Answer by Chuck
Get comfortable with chord changes in 3 or 4 keys – you must get to the chords on time and accurately without thinking about it and without breaking the rhythm,

I am a Travis picker, so here is how I got into it: Work on some of the patterns given in the link below. Get a non-syncopated pattern down so you can accompany a song with it. Then develop a syncopated pattern. If you are playing a steel string guitar you might want to use a plastic thumb pick and a brass banjo pick on your index and middle fingers. If you play a classical guitar, or have tough fingernails you can play bare fingered

Finally, try picking a melody on the top two strings. The open string chords in the key of C work well for this. Borrow a finger from the chord pattern to move or just lift to get the note you need for the melody, and develop finger independence – be able to use the index picking finger when the pattern would have you using the middle finger so you can hit the note you need for melody. This will be difficult and may take you a year to get it down cold.

Lessons will help greatly – but find an instructor who can teach ou what you want to learn.
