I have started taking acoustic guitar lessons with a friend and would like to hear your opinion on songs to listen to for inspiration, and to become more familiar with the general style. I have pretty wide ranged tastes in music, but I am aiming for classical to modern rock.

Answer
Songs I learned while learning Guitar:

Hold my Hand - Hootie and the blowfish
(I'm the one who wants to) Be with you - Mr Big
Tears in heaven - Clapton
Lightning Crashes - Live
Breakfast at Tiffany's - ???
Wicked Game - Chris Isaac
Low - Cracker
Wounded hand - Stone Temple Pilots
Black - Pearl Jam


A lot of old U2 and REM stuff is very easy. U2 tends to ride a chord progression through the whole song, REM creatively uses secondary dominants and major minors.

What are the best websites to go to for beginner guitar lessons?

What are some good places to go to on the internet to get good beginner acoustic guitar lessons?

Thanks

Answer
Check out Marty Schwartz and Justin Sandercoe on youtube. Justin has a pretty good website where all his stuff is organised nicely:

www.justinguitar.com - go to the left hand side and find the 'beginner's course' tab.

Marty is probably better for learning songs, and Justin better for technique and theory and stuff.

Hope this helps.
