Book guitar lessons with expert teachers

Starting guitarists need to master several foundational concepts before moving to harder skills.

• Guitar anatomy: Know the saddle and other essential parts to discuss technique.
• String identification: Memorise standard tuning names to navigate the fretboard.
• Fretting technique: Press strings firmly close to the fret wire using your fingertips.
• Basic strumming: Develop a steady down-up motion by keeping the arm still rather than the whole arm.

Master these basics first to avoid frustrating mistakes that limit your playing.
