how to play acoustic guitar for beginners video image
Devin
I really want to start learning how to play acoustic guitar but I dont know where to start off. Whats some good beginner acoustic guitars?
Also, are there any tutorial sites or videos that are good to learn from?
Answer
I started with a fender T-bucket 300ce, for a beginner, it's an amazing guitar. Around $200-300 depending on the sales you find. But there are many decent beginner guitars out there, try to look for one that has a "solid wood top" and "solid wood back and sides", the sound quality is MUCH better.
Ultimateguitar.com is the-place-to-go for learning some songs fast. You will need to learn how to read guitar tablature (not the same as sheet music) which is quite simple after a couple weeks of study. Learn some "open chord shapes" (A, C, D, E, G, A minor, E minor) they will come in handy once you memorize the shapes. Once you learned those chords, move onto "barre chords" (B, F etc..), these take a little more time to learn since they wear your hand out VERY fast, but you will get used to it.
After you learn some simple songs and figure out if you want to take music more serious, buy a better acoustic (Martin, Taylor, guild) and start learning more advanced chords, scales, theory, and fingerpicking.
Have fun!!!

Is there a book that teaches you how to play the acoustic guitar?

Okay, I want to learn how to play the acoustic guitar
but I don't want to take a class because I don't
like meeting new people. So is there a book that
can teach you everything you need to know about guitar
and how to play it? And is there a certain type of acoustic
guitars that beginners should use?
Answer
Hi
A great book that I always recommend is The Guitar Handbook by Ralp Denyer. I have had my copy for over 20 years.
Theres also some excellent video tuition about too.
Lick Library have great DVDs that you can sometimes buy cheaply on eBay. Also a site called guitar tricks has good and varied video lessons.
I also have a youtube channel that has some guitar videos that are ideal for beginners.
Good luck with your quest.
