Book guitar lessons with expert teachers

Starting guitarists need to master several foundational concepts before moving to songs or complex techniques.

• Guitar anatomy: Identify the body along with the neck to understand how the instrument works.
• Open string names: Standard tuning assigns set values to the strings when unfretted: E-A-D-G-B-E.
• Left-hand form: Use your fingertips to press strings close to the metal bar.
• Right-hand rhythm: Hold a plectrum between your index finger and strum across the strings with a relaxed wrist.

These four fundamentals prepare beginners for playing simple songs within a short timeframe.
