Guitar_1
Guitar is the coolest intruments for all; its easy to pick up but its not easy to master. I had seen a lot of ppl pick up guitar and can play a short intro of swee child O' mine or Nothing else matter they think that they had already master the guitar. That's dead wrong!!! Please do not fall into this trap, trap yourself into dead end.
Playing the guitar, first you have to know what type of guitar suit you most. For a beginner, my advise to you is pick any cheap acoustic guitar as a start off. First you no need to spend a lot of money while you still do not know the guitar yet. Second, it's a good start off, a lot of great guitar player like John Petrucci, Slash, Kirk Hammett, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Steve Morse, Jimi Page, etc etc they also start off with a brand X guitar.
Guitar got many types. Basically, out there have accoustic and electric guitar. What is the different between these two? Accoustic guitar do not have pick up. It does not need an amp; pick up is an device to "collect" the sound from the string and send to the amp in order to have the sound. Actually it's the frequecy pick up by the "pick up"'s magnate and send those frequecy to the amp so that you could listen to the sound.
So an accoustic guitar is the best to start off as if you are juz about to pick up the guitar. Its simple and easy.
First lesson for the guitar its not how to play the guitar. It's how to tune the guitar. A lot of ppl when first pick up the guitar they juz want to know how to play the guitar instead of learn how to tune the guitar. If the guitar out of tune how can you play the song with your out tune guitar? let's think about this first. So you have to know how to tune the guitar in your first day of learning the guitar. Out there got a lot of books or you could get yourself an electronic tuner if you have the money to spend (it's good coz' you can get the correct tune).
Next writting I will write on the guitar types. that's for today! Njoy!
rockON!
