3 Myths about playing Guitar
Nov 16, 2011 Uncategorized
These myths are why some people believe it takes a long time to play guitar as oppose to learning to play play guitar quickly. Don’t get me wrong, playing real well takes time and playing often… notice I did’t say “practice”, I said “playing”!
1) Other teaches spend way too much time on what they call “open” chords and keep you in the first five frets.… here’s a secret, the first five frets of the guitar are the hardest to play!
2) When teachers teach the movable “barre” chords… they use the hardest chords…. it’s not necessary to play these chords at the beginning.
3) It is more important to learn how chords work with each other in “Keys” not memorizing types of chords or a chord dictionary! That is like me giving you the English dictionary and telling you all the words you want to know are all there…. it’s worthless without knowing how to use them!!!
I can show you to avoid these time consuming and frustrating practices from the very beginning!!

Play Guitar “Quickly”, It doesn’t need to be Months or Years!

It doesn’t need to take months or years to play guitar although some teachers as well as potential students think so!
I am a different type of guitar coach, I approach playing guitar very differently than others.. you will be playing guitar very quickly, and you will understand what you are doing, “not just be a robot”! It will also be as comprehensive as it can be, it all depends upon your reasons for playing.
How well you play is up to you… how much time you spend playing etc. However, if it’s fun, if you are motivated, playing your songs and not frustrated…. you will spend more time playing… and so the better and better you will become!
The learning never ends… whether it’s with a teacher, a fellow musician or yourself…. I have been playing for over 30 years… I still keep on learning!!
