Beginner Guitar Lessons

If you’re guitar newbie or picking up the guitar for the first time, this is the right place for you to be. The following guitar lessons are specially created for beginners. It is suggested that the lessons be viewed in the numerical order, as per navigation tabs.

* Beginners TAKE NOTE *

It is NECESSARY to read through the lessons in this section in order to gain a foundation for much more advanced and complex guitar lessons. And if you think you can simply skip this part and jump into more advanced lessons, you WILL kill yourself without the proper foundation. I would also suggest you download a copy of Guitar Pro 5 as it will make practising the exercises easier.

A word of advice is to work at your own pace and not rush through the lessons until you fully understand each one of them. I also want to stress to you the importance of clearing any doubts straight away once you encounter them. Heed this advice as I was once a beginner guitar player who was struggling to learn the basics of playing the guitar. I was simply trying to cramp and learn too much stuff at the same time and thus never really tried to tackled the questions or doubts that I had. I also jumped around learning different things when I encounter problems in playing the guitar. This had not only lengthened my learning curve but also resulted in alot of frustration through my early days of learning the guitar.

The forum will be a very useful place for you to look for answers and for you to share problems encountered while playing the guitar.

Please leave comments/feedbacks so that we can improve on the quality of the lessons to benefit everyone learning the guitar.

Lastly and most importantly, have FUN on beginning your musical journey and enjoy playing the guitar ……………..
