Welcome to Beginner Guitar Lessons Crash Course! This is a complete beginner guitar course that will quickly get you up-to-speed without skipping any important steps. We'll start at the very beginning, assuming that you don't know anything about guitar. By the end of this course, you'll be reading tab, playing open & barre chords, naming notes on every fret, soloing over songs, and strumming with different patterns for each song.
These lessons go in order and build on each other.
If you want to be a guitarist, you'll need a basic ability to play chords. When you play chords, you'll need a few different strum patterns to make the chords sound unique. This means you'll be playing a song or a chord progression. Finally, you'll want to do some soloing over the song or chords. These are all things that you'll learn to do in this course.
Many of these lesson videos include PDF attachments. These are the text guitar lessons to use while watching the videos. You can download, save, & print these. Be sure to get all the PDFs.
