hello! I'm teaching myself how to play guitar, and I would like to say, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. you have no idea how much this helped me :') really. I appreciate you taking time to do this. as a young artist, I'm trying to aspire into a musical career.
@whysorude90 he's holding it correctly. regularly, the low e is on the top. but it really depends if you're a righty or a lefty. he's a righty, so he has to strum with the right hand, and hold down the notes with the left.
Okay...watch this video but if I were you i'd THUBBIT. Check out FretHub (dotcom). They take you right from picking a guitar up through to playing really complex stuff
I used to bust my g string all the time. On another note to all you aspiring guitarists. Just play these chords as hard as you can, as soft as you can, as plucky as you can. Make up your own songs even if its two chords. Do not get frustrated. Your hands will hurt. Your fingers will callas. It does not matter because you will love what you hear. Take comments about your music with a grain of salt but don't ever let it get you down. Play everywhere and play anything. Im outta characters good luck
Hm... I feel like I'd eventually be able to play chords individually... what I am scared I won't be able to do is move my fingers fast enough to play an actual song. Also I think my hands would get way too cramped up after a short period of time because I really messed up my hands from doing colorguard -_-
@zyxwME753 what you ought to do is massage your hand and fingers before and after playing. Don't worry about not being able to move your hands fast enough. That comes with lots of practice so keep working at it!
@zyxwME753 Same here. I'm worried about the exact same thing. I have great ideas for good chord progression and such, and I learn stuff very easily, but I can't even play smoke on the water, cuz it's too FAST, changeup-wise! Also, my fingers aren't very long, so I can only just reach the right fret on certain strings when playing certain chords. :/
@NinjaYoyos Depends, If your playing a D you play the top 4 strings, if your playing a bar chord or something similar to a g you play all the strings. Sorry my english is not very good. :D
don't give up. jimi hendrix, eric clapton, jimmy page, kirk hammett, kurt cobain, johnny marr, and pretty much any other popular guitarist practiced for thousands of hours. once you get these basics down you can build off it and it's not hard.
Honestly once you know all these chords all the rest are easy to learn. Yes I know the F and B chord can be tricky but all you have to do is practice your fingerings and strum every individual string one at a time until you get it, trust me it took me a while.
And what could help beginners with the finger tips hurting is try doing the chords on a higher fret like the 7th fret, then it will be easier to learn the fingerings without quitting because of finger tips hurting badly.
Ohh man I remember when I first grabbed the guitar, like 1 year ago and stumbbled upon this video. I was so frustrated and angry at the same time, but eventually I started picking things up. My advice is don't give up, play every day and you'll have no problems learning the guitar.:)
GREAT VIDEO, BUT I LEARNED HOW TO PLAY IN JUST 2 DAYS WITH THE COURSE AT 2DAYGUITARCOURSE (DOT) INFO. I RECOMMEND THIS COURSE TO ANY PARENTS WANTING TO GET THEIR KIDS STARTED IN GUITAR OR FOR YOURSELF.
@No1NannyLuver you're not terrible. this video is terrible and doesn't explain anything. never say you're terrible who learning guitar. just keep trying.
you're supposed to strike all 6 strings for every chords right? but then the high e rings and that's all that I hear because it's the highest and is overpowering
@BasketofLotion I have no idea what you mean by Em is A + D. The notes in an E minor chord are E, B and G, and you strum all the strings...( 022000 )
But, with a chord like D, you only play the notes/strings in the chord. ( xx0232 ). You don't want to strum the two thickest strings unless it's a slash chord. A common slash chord is D/F#.( 2x0232 )
@FlabbyCelt isn't fucking frustrating? ontop of that my fingers hurt, and my fingers are too big. I learned the beginning riffs of 'bring it on home' by led zeppelin lastnight so i've been practicing that, pretty fun and simple.
love to play guitars..
