You must realize that there are basically three levels of learning: Hobbyist, working musician and guitarist. Can you learn to play popular songs to entertain yourself and friends? Yes. Can you learn enough to earn money doing it? Perhaps. Will it make you a Guitar virtuoso? NO!
There are plenty of DVD’s available to teach you the basics at your own pace. There are plenty of DVD’s to teach popular songs. There is probably more instruction available for the guitar than any other instrument.
This will make you able to enjoy playing but if your goal is to master the instrument or understand advanced music theory, you require actual professional instruction.
Go for it!
.
Go to a reputable music store and buy a Hal Leonard’s Guitar Method #1 for beginners.
Inside are instructions how to tune, hold, and play the guitar with chords and basic music theory. Read and apply the principles slowly and carefully, ever mindful that your fingertips must move beyond the sore and tender time to when they build calluses.
If you can stay with it until after your calluses form you will then be on your way to guitar playing.
Yes to cite one, Tom Morello is a self thought guitarist.
I have been teaching my self guitar for 15 years.
You absolutely can. You should get a book or a DVD that can guide you through learning the guitar.
If you ever want to learn advanced techniques you might need to hire a teacher to help you, but you can think about that later on down the road after you have taught yourself the basics.
Have fun!
it depends if you have natural gift or not.you can try guitar chord books for beginners.also you can try playing to music which you like,but overall i think it is better if someone can show you were you are going wrong.until you get to a good level.good luck with your dream.
lt’s always best to have a teacher, but it is possiable to teach yourself, especially with the CD’s, DVD’s, and websites that they have today, here are a few, maybe you can find something that you like among these : (click on the guitar picture)
You should be able to find something that will help you from one of these, if not go to youtube and type in, how to play guitar and see if there’s something there that you like, good luck, bye !
Yes. Go look for Tablature Books from a favorite band. You don’t have to know how to read music to read tablature. It explains it all. That’s the best way, oh and practice practice practice
