Medieval History Lesson

Please anyone give me a website name where can i get free electric guitar lessons for beginners please i just got my guitar and want to play it really badly.

http://www.learnandmaster.com/iphone

I know it says iphone at the end, but you dont need the iphone. Just go to the site, and type in your name in email. From there it will send you tips, and you can open up a free PDF thats 110 pages long that you can print if you want to. It’s for acoustic and electric, but its really great. Hope that helps, have fun learning guitar.

i have heard about only learning acoustic and then going to electric but i already have and electric

firstly it doesnt matter what you start on, my uncle learnt on the electric and he is pretty good
the prices vary. people at my school get free lessons others have to pay. i had to pay $17.50 per half hour lesson so it depends

okay so im getting a guitar for my bday. which is in a week, i will be getting electric. i am going to get lessons but probably not for the first couple of weeks so is thier any site that can help me get started with my guitar and will have free videos of lessons.
it would help if you gave the link
THANKS

Go to youtube and do a search for Marty Schwartz. He’s very clear and goes slow, so that you can get it…

I’m learning how to play electric guitar, i don’t really want lessons. I’m wondering if there are any great sites out there, that have the beginner in mind, and have easy to learn lessons

Hello,

Playing electric guitar is a good thing. well there are lot of sites that can offer or help you to learn playing this certain instrument. You can go to google and search there. But base on my experience because I am a guitar player to, I usually go to Youtube and watch videos that could really help me to improving my skills in playing the electric guitar. And also I ask some help with my friend to help me.

Hope this would help, continue practicing and I know you will be better in playing this instrument someday. and be patient

Hey everyone. I doubt my question is clear but let me try to explain it to you. Ok, I got my acuostic guitar March 2nd and I’ve been taking guitar lessons for about 3-4 weeks now. I am thinking about saving up for an electric guitar so that when I get the songs down I can play them on that. But I was wondering if you might need to take electric guitar lessons first. They are pretty much both the same right? The only difference is that you can do a little more with an electric guitar. I dunno, but can someone tell me is there a difference and that if I should take electric guitar lessons if I want to play the songs on that?
The style of music I want to learn is rock too.

they are pretty much the same, it all depends on the style of music you are learning.

There are no stores that sell guitar lessons in my area (closest is about a 3 hour drive) and I really want to play guitar so my best option is either those DVD packs or one of the e-courses ive been hearing about. Whether its free or expensive, I want to know a couple of really good dvd’s/e-courses for guitar lessons. So far i’ve found:
http://books-videos-music.musiciansfriend.com/product/Rock-House-Learn-Rock-Guitar-Beginner-Intermediate-Advanced-Package?sku=942719 ($40)
http://www.learnandmaster.com/guitar/ ($150 - looks the best)
http://www.guitarmasterpro.net/ ($30)
http://www.justinguitar.com/ ($free)

If there’s any better ones, or a preferred one that I should use from above, let me know.

Second thing I want to know is the average price around electric guitars and I guess amps. Im not 100% sure im going to be serious about it so I really dont want to buy a really expensive one. Is there an approximate range in guitar prices that anyone can give me? Thanks.

I’ve been playing for 22 years. I checked out the www.justinguitar.com site since it’s the free one you mentioned. Looks pretty well structured to me. I would recommend that site at least until you decide for sure that playing guitar is something you want to do. He recommends getting a tuner on that site and I agree whole-heartedly. Until you learn pitch really well, you are going to need that tuner. Playing out of tune and not realizing what is wrong is highly discouraging. You may be playing something right but it sounds wrong and you get frustrated trying to make it sound right. Get a tuner and check your tuning often. Since you’re probably going to get a cheap guitar that is not professionally set up to start out with, you will probably have to tune it a lot. I have a Korg CA-30 tuner and it’s fantastic.

My daughter expressed interest in guitar last year so I bought her a Dean Vendetta XM for $120 brand new. I would give this guitar a very high recommendation for a beginner. It’s so much better than the pile of crap I bought from a big box store when I started playing. It weighs nothing, yet it’s solid. It stays in tune well and the pickups are decent when you consider the fact that they are almost free. It also has 24 frets and pretty nice action. It does have some drawbacks, like the really cheap tuners, but I could actually take this guitar on the stage. Since my daughter decided not to play, I use it as a practice instrument.

You didn’t mention what type of music you’re going to be playing. That will affect what type of amp you want. However, the amp I would recommend would be a Line 6 Spider III 15 watt. That amp costs $100. The cool thing about it is that it’s what’s called a "modeling" amp. That means it uses software to imitate other amps. And it has several effects built right into the amp so you don’t need to buy a bunch of seperate pedals. So you can dial in all sort of different sounds from country to rock to blues to metal to grunge. Keep in mind, this is a practice amp. You can’t use it on stage. However, it’s probably the only practice amp you’ll ever need.

Here are links to the gear I mentioned. I also highly recommend this online retailer.

I live in Chicago, IL and im having a little trouble deciding where to go to get lessons i have an untouched electric guitar been having it for over an year now! i really want to learn how to play it

Lessons are fine, but you should know that there are guitar players that taught themselves how to play. If you prefer to be guided try this site: http://fad0cac5eeh4dx57cazendcofi.hop.clickbank.net/

Ive learned a few easy songs like plug in baby slowly and seven nation army but where do i really start? Like what should i learn? Cause i dont really have a direction im just playing.

I’ve never had a formal lesson in my life and now I rock stages all over.
It’s all self motivation. Stray away from "I wanna start on this easy band and work my way up to Metallica and DragonForce" or something.
Best way to learn any instruments, look anywhere online for simple note explanations, learn your chords, maybe check out YouTube for picking and hand exercises to work on a little everyday. Only then, when you’re comfortable with notes, start practicing with some tabs of your favorite songs or playing with online backing tracks. Nothing is funner than jamming along to your favorite songs on your iPod.
Have fun man.

My dad has a guitar and an amp. I was just wondering if I could google the chords and eventually learn it? I played ukulele in sixth gradeso that might help what are your opinion s?
