Hey guyz; I recently have this craze of learning the guitar. I stay in dubai and the guitar teachers here charge a lot so I am trying to learn from the net. I can read the tabs and play but I can't change the tabs and strings fast, anyway to do that? I cannot not also memorise the tabs of any song as hard as I may try. Please Help Me Out guyz regardzzz
remembering tabs is always a problem it would be better if you tried to remember the sounds and not the numbers learn to listen and sing along with the notes you want to play one note at a time and i dont think remembering tunes should be much of a problem the problem that remains is how would you find the tunes on the guitar well then try to look for patterns when you play a song and if the whole song is too big for you then break it up into bits and play each of the bits separately (im jumping way ahead of myself here but - most of the songs follow a similar set of notes - called a scale. if you get that you will be able to play the song very easily) all the best hope i helped
well dude I have no idea I started a week back with a friend he has learnt to play so many songs and i can't play anything he can remember the tabs and play them fast too
he he he a week is too less to hope to remember the tabs and play fast by the end of the month you should be ok though all the best
thnx dude bt hw long will it take approx.??? I can't spend much tym wid the guitar I spend around 2-3 hourz every week hafta study also na
you in school or college?? i cant tell how much time it will take depends on you it took me a year to start playing properly but that was because i didnt have anyone to teach me or access to the net plus i didnt even have a tuned guitar or anyone to tune it properly im not saying it will take you as long as that keep practicing whenever you get the time eventually you will get the hang of it given you dont quit in between the first few months are frustrating all the best
If you wanna play tunes... You first learn the basic major and minor scales ... And also some basic finger workouts... And by the time u finish it u wudnt need to remember tabs or numbers ... u just have to know the sound to play things .....
learn da major nd natural minor scales nd do sum ear training lots of ear training sites r thr search 4 dem
Apart from what has been posted before, you need to put in a lot of time for finger-exercises. One way is |---1---2---3---4| on all 6 strings from up to down then |---4---3---2---1| in all 6 strings from down to up. Then shift forward one fret. second variation is |---1---3---2---4| with the same technique that I listed above. Here, for fretting (1) you should use your forefinger, for fretting (2), your index, (3) ring-finger and (4) pinky. Practice this before you start "playing" songs, and you will find your speed and your accuracy improving. The above exercises also reduce "sympathetic tension" i.e. the effect when you move one finger, the ones beside it automatically move. This exercise helps you reduce that and you will be able to play more confidently.
