Learning Guitar Notes

By Simon Mourrain

One of the first things to do when learning how to play the guitar is to recognize the notes. Learning guitar notes is not something you can do overnight, you need time and practice. The fret board of a guitar is where they are played. There is no need to be itimidated by the fret board. Learning guitar notes is an important chapter in guitar playing, even if it looks tough keep practicing.

Performing the very first melodies on your guitar will be easier if you identify the notes on the first guitar string. The first string offers 3 notes, E, F (first fret), and G (third fret). The second string is B, C (first fret), and D (third fret). Now it is time for you to conduct some exercises. Slowly perform these notes and make sure that you concentrate to learn them well.

You should understand the notes as well as their names, and most especially their sounds. know them by heart. You can study by playing simple songs.

When you feel ready with the first 2 strings, you can focus on the third. G is the open string and the other note is A (second fret). When you identify these notes, start playing them together with the ones you've studied before. Again, you have to stick with easy songs. You don't have to study on all the notes at once. Try to master each of them, one at the time. Even little kids can study guitar notes easily. Follow these steps and in no time, you can perform them on your guitar.

Learning guitar notes will be very tricky if you don't posses your own guitar. Studying from books or music sheets is not enough. You should hear them being played on the guitar's fret board. A lot of learners fail to study for the reason that they don't have guitars on their hands. Once you study to read a music sheet, you can play more advanced melodies.

Using simple melodies, such as nursery rhymes that you learned as a child, will make the process of learning guitar notes easier and faster. Once you master and memorize them, you can perform the songs that you like.

Guitar notes are not really tricky to study as long as you recognize what to do. With all the resources provided online, ebooks, software, videos, you can study all these things by yourself. You do not have to hire an expensive professional teacher. However if you do not like learning alone and prefer having a teacher that is totally fine. But keep in mind that if you do not have a positive attitude, hiring a teacher will not make any difference.

The purpose in studying guitar notes is to identify them off the top of your head. Then you can focus on other aspects of the guitar studying process. Make sure that you stay motivated and that you have fun while learning. - 18762
