Guitar is unlike any instrument I’d played when I picked it up and once I’d spent a little time with it I finally understood why they seemed to be everywhere.
The fits and starts in the beginning can be a challenge, but the rewards for making the climb are worth the investment. Over the years I've found that there's a certain path with many branches that pays real dues for anyone learning the instrument.
Whether you want to play wailing leads or accompany yourself singing, there's a style of guitar playing that suites you. We start simply learning about the instrument, follow that up with a few chords, and are soon branching out in every direction using the songs you want to play as the path to making a better guitar player.
