  2. swantar66 Says:

  3. AndrewAllen2k8 Says:

    GET SOME PICKS!!! I think its best to get medium picks but its up to you what you get… but yes picks are very recommended

  4. spartin111 Says:

    it depends on the style your going for, if your going for a metal genre of playing, i suggest an electric – specifically an Ibanez – for jazz, i’d suggest a fender, for rock, a gibson (all electrics), but if your going more for country, gospel, etc. go for an acoustic (idk tht many acoustic brands, sorry =( )

  5. DarkBolder Says:

    yes, its easier to learn with a pick, and there not expensive or anything so go get one =)

  6. silvervolt7 Says:

    acoustic

  7. silvervolt7 Says:

    yes, but it hardens your fingers making it easier to play later on and once you can play with normal plastic strings on acoustic switch to metal strings then you can play electric so its really easy to play but still practice with an acoustic whenever possible helps you make everything easier

    it’s not wat’s better. it’s what you like more. Pick something that you would want to play more. If you start off with an acoustic/classical ur fingers will harden up so when u advance to elec it won’t b so hard and ur fingers won’t rip. Also depends on what style you want to play. also, imo electrics are more versatile bcos u can do more things with it. IMO

    same here. i have played piano for like 11 yrs since 6. lol.. and i regret that i didin’t learn guitar be4. but i’m getting my first guitar soon ;P

  16. okamasphere Says:

    An Acoustic is much harder to play than an electric, soley because the strings are much thicker. I recommend starting on an acoustic because it helps to build strength in your fingers, as well as the caluses that are esential.

    aucoustic

    I have played violin for almost 10 years, since 8, and I wanted to learn guitar. About guitars I know nothing at all! But the notes seem to be similar to the violin because of the fingers…
    What do you recomend for beginning? An acoustic or electric guitar?

    He forgot to mention that doobie he lost while filming this. Hell, at least he’s got a real Gibson SG and not some knock-off. I have both a Gibson SG & a Gibson Les Paul. Two of the greatest guitars ever made!

  20. GreenacresMusic Says:

    press down just behind the fret bar :)

  22. ProwerPlays Says:

    Helped me, I would have never known about the parts of the guitar if I didn’t see this… you do understand this a beginner tutorial, right?

  23. KEEPAWAYVILEANDBILE Says:

    hes a good teacher

  24. CayanMagusson Says:

    Well, lessons are always good but I found it better to save my money for the harder stuff. As you can see, a lot of people post beginner lessons on YouTube and other websites. The best advise I could give you would be to a)watch other players (on youtube, your favorite guitarists and your guitar-playing friends), b)invest in a chord chart (it’s cheap and easy to learn from) and c)practice and take it slow, focus on one thing you want to learn. Most of all develop your own style. You’ll be great.
