Before getting to learn any musical instrument or anything that can be constructive in life, one has to start off right. Starting off right is awesome.

The STAFF is the only best presentation of written music on the whole planet. It has 5 lines and four spaces between the lines. While reading the STAFF, one has to do it from the left to the right. Notes are always written on each line of a STAFF. The other thing that needs to be done by a learning Guitarist is learning and mastering the notes on the first and the 2nd Strings. There 3 important notes on the E (1st) string. They are E, F and G. On the other hand, notes B, C, and D are on the 2nd string. These notes are very crucial in the playing of the Guitar by any aspiring and learning student because they are what make every chord an individual will ever play on the Guitar.

3. Master the Notes on the 3rd to the 6th string too

 

As mentioned earlier, notes are very crucial because they are used to construct chords that are played on a progression to bring out a musical sense. The other strings on the Guitar which are the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th strings respectively also have notes. These notes are on different positions of the fretboard. The positioning depends on the string’s thickness and position. Here  I have highlighted the notes found on various strings beginning with the 3rd to the 6th respectively.

 

3rd- G, A

4th- D, E, F

5th- A, B, C

6th- E, F, G

4. Master the basic open chords, minor seventh and the suspended chords

 

Chords, in my opinion, and understanding of music are various notes played together systematically of progressively. Often, Tri Chords are played on the Guitar. They are what make us have an appreciation for music. The basic open chords of a Guitar are C, C7, D, D7, Dm, E, E7, Em, G, G7, B7, A, A7, and Am. One or two of these chords are very rare to miss when a Guitarist is playing the Guitar. Mastering their positions, and changing through them systematically and quickly is very important to every Guitarist.

Barre Chords are the easiest to play and the hardest to if one gets them wrong. They are often on the 5th and the 6th strings of the Guitar. Like all the other chords, when mastered and played as they should be in a systematic manner, one becomes a Pro at the Guitar. A progression is the systematic playing of chords to bring out a musical sense. To master the art of progression, one has to listen to lots of songs on the radio and the ones played live. The melodic transition of every chord one catches on songs is the progression used on the songs. A keen listener and one who has mastered the positions of all the chords on the Guitar can identify the various types of progressions played on all the songs they hear. Listen and practice.
