Guitar Playing
Guitar playing?
Well I have played music since I was a little tyke. For a few years now I have wanted to “seriously” learn to play the guitar. I have had one for many years, I can play around, play all the simple beginners songs, however if it comes to playing real music highly doubtful. Also I’m concerned with learning bad habits that might limit my playing. (I know how this can be a problem from playing the cello since I was 10) Habits specifically bad ones are hard to break.
What is the best suggestions and guideance you can give as to How To Learn To Play The Guitar properly. Would you suggestion simply learning by ear? Learing notes and sheet music? Learning chords and using the cheat method by just looking up the chords before playing. What do you all think is best for the longer term not the short term of learning to play? Thanks!
If you are really serious about learning the guitar you should treat it as a serious instrument and take lessons. You should learn to read music and you should learn how to play many different styles of guitar.
What would probably benefit you the most musically is if you started by taking lessons in Classical Guitar. This will stress all of the musical fundamentals, and you will also find that what you learn here will help you when you branch out into learning blues, folk, rock, jazz, and any other style that you wish.
Treat it seriously, practice for at least an hour every day, and never lose your love of the instrument. It will be something that will benefit you for the rest of your life.
Congratulations! You’re in for a great ride!
