recomendations for a beginner guitarist?

| I would like you to give me recommendations of songs and information to improve being a guitar beginner


| Dunno about actual songs, but I do have some other kind of advice. Work those scales, gurl. Do various exercises too, both for fret hand and strumming hand. The most important thing: don't drop this. Try to keep practicing every single day.


| Try learning about the circles (circle of fifths and shit), practice every day, don't stop, seriously, you'll forget things if you stop, strumming patterns is also one of the tops to learn, and as for songs, any kind of songs is ok, just learn the rhythm guitar first, thats usualy the easy part, althought not every one will be easy. but seriously dont drop this.


| Wonderwall.


| I always recommend playing standing up.

Also, if you are in to rock, learn songs by Sabaton, namely from the album Coat of Arms, and make sure you learn them all the way through. Just learning licks isn't as helpful as being able to play full songs. Sabaton has enough variety in their songs to stay interesting for a beginner, and isn't too easy or too hard to pull off.

But what if we're talking about a classic guitar, not an electric one? It'd be hard to play standing up, and borderline impossible to make something by Sabaton sound good.

Then he can take your advice instead.


| When I was a kid, I used to pause F-Zero GP Legend and listen to each of the races music and play notes on an acoustic until it sounded like the song. Good times


| Much...


| try really hard to memorise the fretboard and its notes. it will really help especially if you are aiming to develop perfect pitch. also, for rock songs, learn power chords and pentatonic scales since power chords are used in many rock songs like these and pentatonic scales are really useful for writing solos and other riffs.


| Tune into DADF#AD, listen to John Fahey, and never go back.


| Smoke on the Water.

But really, it depends on your equipment, style and goals.


| Andy Guitar on YouTube, we'll good for beginners. He's really easy to learn from if you're just getting started.


| Real* no we'll... I have no clue


| Not*


| Play some Agalloch


| Those first few months are super important. Make sure your technique is correct. I always recommend 6 months of formal instruction just so you can get bad habits corrected before they become ingrained.
