So you want to be a rock star? And learn the guitar quickly.
You better have a lot of spare time free! You can learn guitar quickly, hell I was even playing a whole song my very first day of learning guitar, but it takes a lot of practice and patience! It also depends what level of guitar playing you want to achieve in the long run.
I only wanted to achieve enough to be able to play some punk songs, which are generally quite easy.
But if you want to achieve Jimi Henrix status, you'll be learning for ages! Learning Guitar Quickly So what does it take to be able to learn the guitar quickly? Hard work! First of all your obviously going to need a guitar, I recommend buying one from ebay.
Your only going to need it to practice, so pick up a cheap one.
Then when you become better, then it's time to step up and get a quality guitar.
Lots of practice! Your going to need to practice until your fingers are ready to fall off every single day! Practice when you watch TV is good, because all you do is simple use your fret hand to change chords.
You do not need to strum.
This way you can strengthen up your fret hand and become more familiar with chord changes.
Once you know some chords, and are familiar with power chords.
You can then learn to read tabs from various Internet tab websites.
Find the tab to your favorite songs, and practice.
I recommend these songs for beginners; Wonderwall by Oasis, Time Of Your Life by Green Day, All The Small Things - Blink 182.
Best of luck to you!
