Sorry, man, I had to.

I don't think that anyone feels bad about asking people to use proper spelling and grammar when they are asking for help. You've been here for like a week, play by the rules or go home.

Now he's retardation has made my post look bad. I hate n00bs.

how to play:

it would be a good idea to get an instructor if you have the money. i've never had an instructor, except for freshman year when i took a basic guitar class just to get the foundation down for me. after that i enhanced on my own.if you get an instructor then they can teach you the right and wrong of playing guitar if any.

play A LOT of different styles of music. don't just stick to dave. in fact, one entire summer (when i found this site) i dedicated it to learning dave songs. now i have a bad habit of strumming everything i play, even sometimes in lead i'll strum the notes cause i've gotten used to muting. so don't just listen to dave. play some mayer, or RHCP, or whatever tickles your fancy.

alright, now how do you learn them? well... i'm guessing fat jack or someone that's a music major will tell you that you should buy some guitar books with sheet music. since it's me giving you advice, i'd say go for tab just to learn chords and junk. after a little while of playing and getting better, try to learn music theory. in fact, if you want to persue a musical career, you must learn it. it'll help you in creating songs if you ever wanted to join a GOOD band (not just some punk band with power chords, but a jazz/improve band or something)


there is my advice on learning guitar since you were asking for that, not on how to spell and use proper grammar...

Appfro wrote:guitar for dummies. i swear. it's how i taught myself. after you get basic chords down and you're able to switch between them, start learning songs that have those basic chords in them. when you get better at that, start learning songs w/ other harder chords. when you get better at that, start learning songs w/ screwed up chords. ie

guitar for dummies
once you get good move on to oasis or the like, like speenis said
once you get good move on to easier dave songs like grey street or 41
once you get good move on to harder songs like tripping billies or clapton etc.

but the main point here is that guitar for dummies is an awesome book. it teaches basic chords, scales including pentatonic, majors, and blues, and it teaches basically how to solo. great book.


they also have a video too!

bad grammer guy......... i recomend getting a basic guitar book, learning to play the basic
a,am,b,bm,c,d,e,em,f,f# cords..... learn the blues scales and then pick out some easyer dmb songs from the site. keep trying ,it will come

to a couple of other people, his thread was unclear and overly shorthanded, but then a three page bashing may have been a little Over. The Top..........imo

the "go suck cock and die" bit is a sign of immaturity and has no place on these boards, but i feel that he was pushed to it a little
