Posts: 4161 | January 1st, 2006 at 07:11am I tried, and failed. In the end I started getting lessons. Still am.
But you could go to Ultimate Guitar... I think someone's posted the link. That's real good for lessons and tutorials.
And you can get CD's which guide you through lessons, that could work |

e - the first string/ the high one
b -
g -
d -
a -
E - 6th string/lowest
the numbers indicate where your fingers should be placed on the fret board like..
-second fret
-hit the b,g and d strings
e ---
b -2-
g -2-
d -2-
a ---
E ---
That's an A chord.

Posts: 202 | February 16th, 2006 at 02:41pm I'm teaching myself by playing tabs which is a downside because I don't know how to read notes. But atleast I can play songs. I'm no expert though lol |

Posts: 2787 | February 18th, 2006 at 03:59am ALLLLL you do is get a book of chords, and print some tabs of songs you know.
Then learn how do read tabs (see the thread near the top of the Musicians forum page)
Then learn power chords and barre chords and blaaaaaaaaaah.

Me too, I find it a lot easier when you're starting to play songs you know really well, cos then you know if your chords and notes sound right or not. |

Posts: 4430 | February 18th, 2006 at 01:03pm I am right now. But, in a couple months, I'm getting lessons from a friend of my dad's. He has every instrument known to man, and he can play them all. He also has a recording studio in his house! I'm so excited because I might be able to cut a couple of tracks sometime. |

Posts: 5688 | February 23rd, 2006 at 09:09pm Ultimate-Guitar will give you chord charts when you search for tabs (it isn't shutting down, they pay royalties for the tabs to be up on the net), that's how I taught myself. |

Posts: 3645 | February 26th, 2006 at 03:12pm What exactly are power chords?
I think I know most of the basics... well, I know how to play a few chords anyway.
Maybe I should try learning scales... *toodles off to UG* |
