How to Learn To Play Guitar Fast and Easy

By Tony Balibrera


For me, learning to play guitar was a very fun experience; I remember when I was a kid and got my guitar for Christmas when I was about thirteen years old, and I just did not want to put the guitar down, I remember I used to play all afternoon after school, of course I had plenty of time to practice.

Let me tell you that I have seen that many people out there have a the idea that to learn guitar is hard, that it is difficult and you should start only if you have all afternoon or all morning to spare, that is not true, I can tell you that if you have your own guitar, all you need is about an hour a day to practice guitar; there is no secret recipe to master the guitar, practice is the key.

A very important quality every guitar player must have, especially at the beginning is patience. It is easy to get bored and frustrated if you do not have the right mindset. You need to know that at first your fingers will hurt a little bit and maybe your back too, but trust me when I say that after a couple of days, a few weeks tops, you'll be glad that you put some effort on your first steps as a musician.

Now, to learn the guitar online fast is also necessary to practice. You don't need to spend all afternoon and all night playing guitar, but it would be wise to play for about one hour every day; your fingers will get used to the strings really quickly if you do this, besides, when you are playing guitar, time flies; you'll be having too much fun.

Another very important thing to know is that to learn a song correctly you should always practice it slowly. If you do this, you won't have any problems playing it faster later on. This could sound a little bit like a paradox, but yes, to learn guitar fast you should learn your songs slowly. It is better to learn and practice a song accurately, mistakes free and slowly, than learning it fast and making a lot of mistakes.

Also, if you listen to a lot of music you will develop a good sense of rhythm and learning your songs will become easier when you recognize what you are playing.

A lot of people when they start learning guitar they get overwhelmed, and the truth is that to play guitar is not difficult when you are motivated and you have the proper guidance. This is all you need to get started:

1. An acoustic guitar 2. A couple of picks 3. About an hour a day to practice 4. A nice guitar method 5. Determination

After you have decided to learn to play guitar, my advice to you is to sign up for guitar lessons or a guitar course online, they are usually very cheap and provide great quality. If you have a friend that plays guitar, try to get additional tips and ideas to learn guitar even faster. I wish you the best of lucks and have a great day.
