If you're just starting to learn to play guitar, you may be wondering what you can do to make the process a little easier. Here are a few brief tips that will help you out.
1. Playing vs. practicing
Practicing means doing scales and technical exercises - everything that will strengthen your fingers and technique. Playing is strictly fun. Make sure you know the difference and do both.
2. The metronome is your friend
You need to learn good timing from the very start. This is one of the most important things to do when you're first learning, because getting down rhythm and timing from the start will determine whether you're a good or bad guitarist down the line. Developing good habits from the start is crucial.
3. Listen to all different kinds of music
The best guitarists are those who have a wide-range of tastes and technique. No style of music is bad, though some may appeal to your tastes more than others. You can get ideas even from songs you don't necessarily like.
