If you’re serious about learning to be a professional the only way to go is to get lessons from a professional guitar teacher. There is no substitute for that. Good luck. Lester G
There are lots of ways to learn and, yes, something complex like playing guitar should be taught in stages. Keep in mind, however, that Jimi Hendrix never took a single lesson; he was completely self-taught. Daniel C
However you decide to learn how to play, whether it is by professional lessons, tips from other guitarists, or Internet sites, you must make the guitar an extension of your mental process. To do that it will require hours upon hours of steady practice and research into music theory with a strong goal to improve a little each day.
The process of mind and guitar must come simultaneously, but only by good habits of steady practice and keeping the incentive to build upon expertise gradually. You won’t become as a professional until you are totally relaxed with the guitar as you are with your arms or legs. And that will not come for several years, at a minimum.
To play as a professional you must build upon experiences or events in playing before others–from small groups to large auditoriums with the same ease as if you were playing in the solitude of your living room. This takes time, perseverance, and practice. Have you noticed how often I mentioned the word practice? That should instill in your mind the importance of it. You cannot grow your calluses and your expertise without practice.
Your best option for now is to get lessons from a reputable and knowledgeable guitarist and teacher so you can get started with good practice habits. Guitarpicker
DIY lessons are ok. Thousands learn that way. But of those thousands, the ones you have HEARD of and RESPECT their ability had formal lessons. For isntance, back in the day, when I put together all my ‘idols,’ I realized ALL of them had formal lessons from none other than Joe Satriani (another of my guitar idols!) Basically, ANY metal guitarist you heard of out of the Bay Area in the 80’s was a Satriani student! Compelling stuff.
Yea, Jimi Hendrix never took lessons. Are you Jimi?
Yea… me either.
Keep in mind that Jimi did his own thing, and it took PROFESSIONAL MUSICIANS to figure out what he was doing and follow him. Jimi could not work the other way until late in his career. You couldn’t say: “Hey Jimi… 12 bar blues in A!” And have him play it. HE would play what was in HIS head, and OTHER musicians would figure it out and follow. So as ground-breaking as he was, he still wasn’t a ‘professional level musician’ until LATER in his career!
If you never want to leave your bedroom, you can get by on DIY lessons. If you want to be professional quality, you need professional lessons and devote full-time student time for several years. No other way, unless you are a phenom. But if you’re asking this, you (just like me and a miliion-million others) are no phenom. Get the formal lessons. eine kleine nukedmusik
