@LiveLaughLove3399tt Not for sure for sure but if you know one string interments then you know most of them. Just a little variation with each ones.

[TheBeatlesCom]

@mgdemon01 Yes, he couldn't, but Jody fisher, Joe pass, Charlie parker, steve vai, Joe Satch, Malmsteen And many more can. Dimebag was also very very sloppy, unlike these guitarist I layed out. Does that tell you anything?

[thomascatlett555]

@mgdemon01 well he kicks ass, but i bet if you got really technical with him about what he's playing he probably wouldnt understand. i want to learn this so that i can compose music without having to have the instrument in my hand, and also so that i can read music

[twisterellafell]

see guitarmanual.typepad.com/blog/ for beginning lessons! or google guitar manual blog and see first result.

[mgdemon01]

[HeavyMetalAndWhiskey]

You really don't need to learn music sheet if you want to play guitar, pretty much all guitar players read tab.

[theperformingguy112]

shuddup fool!

[cerebraldude812]

how would someone read an A minor or C major for guitar on sheet music?

[confuseTHEmasses]

@catchingthelight1 with a tuner. or find another c# if your ear is good enough.c #s sit on 4th fret A string, 6th fret G string, 2nd fret b string and 11th fret d string in standard E to E tuning.

[catchingthelight1]
