- Acoustic guitar
- Chord Chart
Instructions
Step 1
Take your guitar and sit down. The left hand should grip the strings on the fretboard (for now, any), the right hand is on the strings near the "guitar socket". You can describe many landings of guitarists, but everyone has to choose their own fit, later you can improvise. But the importance of landing is difficult to overestimate, so pay attention to it.
Step 2
The next step is to learn the techniques of playing the guitar. There are only two of them: fight and brute force (arpeggio). Please note that the concept “remove until we put chords. With your thumb, swipe down the strings twice, then with the other four hit the strings down, and again with your thumb, swipe down. Slowly at first, then faster and faster. This fight is called "smooth". Over time, you will learn to play them rhythmically and with chords.
Step 3
The next type of combat consists of three simple parts. We squeeze the right hand into a fist, but leave the index finger sticking out. We play them on the strings down, up, and mute the strings. We repeat again. Jamming is done with the edge of the right palm and consists in the fact that the edge muffles the strings immediately.
Step 4
Moving on to guitar fingering. Everything is pretty simple here. We cling the strings with our fingers in the following order: bass (fourth or fifth string), 3, 2, 3, 1, 3, 2, 3. This technique is called an eight-sounding arpeggio. A lot of songs are played with such a search.
Step 5
Learning to play chords. The simplest and most common chords: Am Dm, Em, E, Em, C, G. Look at the chord chart and play them on the guitar. First, practice on each chord, then move on to combinations. For example, we practice the transition from Am to C, Dm to E. If the strings are metal, then at first the fingers will cut, but with the appearance of calluses, the pain will disappear.
Step 6
By following the instructions above and practicing 3-4 hours a day every day, you can learn how to play in just one or two weeks.
