After sitting around and wishing I knew how to play the guitar, I've finally decided to just go ahead and learn. I’m not new to music by any means, I've been playing violin and piano since I was 5 years old (I'm now 24) and have been in some light touch with the guitar. My biggest problem now is where to start. I also understand that there are two different types of acoustic guitars: steel-string and classical. I'd actually like to learn a bit of both...to be able to play some classical guitar (John Williams blows me away) along with some more light-hearted Jack Johnson-type stuff. I plan on taking some online lessons to help get me started and want to have a source that can match all the needs I want like learning all the chords,. I just don’t it to be over soon, but practice with daily lessons. Suggest me something that I can look upon …… Sorry for the long post and thanks for your help!

I'd say if you like guitar hero style you could wait for Guitar Rising. Otherwise just look up free video guitar lessons on say piratebay.org, demonoid (if you have an account) or goog if you really wanted to. Hell I'm sure youtube will even have some.

It’s always good to have some prior knowledge other then just going on the net and imagine you being spoon-fed. I have just been over with my teaching lessons from a teacher and due to my busy schedule I had missed some classes which I could not get back. Then I decided to learn guitar online. That is Hotstrings. HotStrings—your source for the easy way to learn guitar—WITHOUT learning all those notes. It couldn’t be easier than this! Just download the FREE HotStrings Viewer and starter courses directly to your Windows PC. Through new daily exercises, learn all the chords, licks and shredding techniques of seasoned professionals. Play along to easy daily exercises and real songs with a real band, slowing down and mastering individual tracks. You can even earn extra money by giving your own guitar lessons.

www.vguitarlessons.com That is where i learned and the teacher is a badass guitarist.This site is also good if you want to learn certain songs.If you email him and ask him to do a song for you he will.I was surprised when I got the email back from him saying he would do my song. Check it out.Just sign up and I think its like once a week for like 12 weeks you get a free guitar lesson.Every once in a while you get a random guitar lesson from him that teaches you more things than the normal lessons. Good luck and have fun playin'. -Ryan
