Watch the video lesson below.
Getting started
Here we learn about the basics. The guitar anatomy. Parts of the guitar and how it functions. How to hold the guitar. Very important for comfort and ease of playing. Get this wrong and it will be an uphill battle. So best to get it right the first time.
You’ll also learn the positioning of both right and left hands. This will allow you to form chords and create rhythm with them. How to tune the guitar. One of the most important lessons in the whole training course. This will allow it to sound good when you play it.
Playing Guitar Chords
Forming guitar chords is the foundation. This is what Learn To Play Rhythm Guitar teaches. Start with natural open chords. These can be found in almost all popular songs heard on the radio.
Learn to form and play these properly, and you will be able to play many, many songs. Both major and minor chords are presented with diagrams that can be easily understood.
Creating Rhythm
Creating rhythm is the next step. Once you learn to form a few chords and switch between them, you can start playing music. It’s that easy once you get started. Once you do that, you’ll be on your way.
By learning to strum chords, arpeggiate chords, and form chord progressions, you can play songs in no time, without knowing anything about music theory or having any previous musical training.
Forming Barre Chords
Barre chords can be a bit tricky at first. But with the tips in this training course and daily practice, you’ll have them down quickly. It all comes down to how you approach the technique.
How much effort you put into mastering it and the desire you have for the result. Once learned, barre chords allow you to unlock the power of the fretboard.
Guitar Chord Theory
In addition to learning practical application techniques and strategies, you want to learn some basic guitar chord theory. The knowledge of this one topic alone is going to give you an edge over most guitar players. Because most guitar players never get around to learning it.
The reason why this is so beneficial is because it will allow you to build chords. Not just learn their names and shapes. Create new chords on the fly by adding note embellishments. Turn a major chord into a minor, by just adding or subtracting a note.
You will be able to increase your chord vocabulary by knowing the notes on your fretboard and where those notes are located within each chord. This knowledge and insight is what will allow you to understand better what you are paying, as well as be able to create additional chord voicings.
Practice Habits
The best way to progress as quickly as possible with the most efficiency is to develop habits that will help you learn faster. Learn To Play Rhythm Guitar will teach you quality practice habits that will keep you on track. Keep you from wanting to quit if things get hard, or you get frustrated.
These two things alone have caused many casualties on the road to great guitar playing. But with proper practice habits, you’ll stay motivated, you’ll avoid the desire to quit. You’ll develop self-discipline, which will lead to self-confidence and the motivation to press forward.
But for practice habits to be effective (no matter what kind they are) you need to apply them daily. You need to take action on them and apply them. You need to make them part of your daily routine. Do this and you will develop a solid musical foundation.
