Quinnmobile. Jazz Hands Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 336 | Gustavatron.: ^Thats a good exercise up there. Or practice all the chords you know, over and over again. That's how I got my fingers to take all of the stretching I do to them. How long have you been playing guitar? |

Fireplug. Salute You in Your Grave Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 4635 | xXPathetic.HeroineXx: THANKS! I've had a guitar for about 2 and a half years... but I've only been taking lessons for like... 7 months. All the time before my lessons was just a waste because I just spent my time mimicking the vocals. It got me very familiar with the neck, though. Which helped. I'm just not fast at all. I wanna play fast. |
Quinnmobile. Jazz Hands Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 336 | Fireplug.: I think everyone wants to play fast, but you have to learn the material and theory before you can "Shread". Trust me, you need any knowledge you can get. |

Simple and Clean Salute You in Your Grave Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 2616 | hell_on-earth: It is perfectly possable, my sister, never had a techer, only one DVD, a CD and a Book, and she can play trivium and fast stuff like that. |
Oxycontin Genocide. Banned Age: 29 Gender: Male Posts: 2955 | Baka-kun XNinjaX: Yes, quite. Me too as a matter of fact. It depends on the person though. I didn't need any lessons or anything, but I still persevered, and I can play guitar very well. |
Synyster Salute You in Your Grave Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 4215 | You can totally learn from a cd, like Oxycontin Genocide and Baka-kun XNinjaX said, but depending on how you like to learn and what methods are good for you, you might want to get a teacher It all depends on what your comfortable with really (one thing about teachers is that theres most likely a waiting list for you to go on X_x) |
Quinnmobile. Jazz Hands Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 336 | hell_on-earth: I wouldn't know. I am a visual person. I have to see where to put my fingers, and not look off a book or hear from a CD. It just depends on what type of learner you are I guess. But, It is possible I'm sure of it. |
wilson. Shotgun Sinner Age: - Gender: - Posts: 9092 | If you're teaching yourself, pick up a beginner's guitar book and just hack away at it. They usually come with some kind of CD/DVD to accompany it, and instead of jumping straight into tabs and so on you actually learn the basics of guitar. When you're learning, don't forget to learn how to tune by ear as well as use an electric tuner. Sometimes you may not have access to a tuner, and it really helps if you can tune by ear/to a song off your iPod/etc. Also, pick up a book on theory. Yeah, it's boring, but it will help you understand how to write songs that work when you get around to it. Also, if you understand theory you'll have an easier time learning how to engineer/mix tracks/tune and so on. All that cool stuff. |
Oxycontin Genocide. Banned Age: 29 Gender: Male Posts: 2955 | war crime.: Ahh yes theory. Everyone should try to know it. It helps. I play trombone, and I self taught most of my theory. It's pretty simple. |
Gabby: Astro Zombie Killjoy Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 13 | Yeah, I don't know if this question has been asked before but I want to change the strings on my bass, the only problem is I don't know how to change 'em. So if anybody knows how, could you please help me? |
Simple and Clean Salute You in Your Grave Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 2616 | When playing keyboard, what's a good way to get good playing one thing with each hand? |
the original JULES Demolition Lover Age: - Gender: Female Posts: 19598 | This is a little more detailed musicianship, but still... Is anyone really handy with transposing music? |
Synyster Salute You in Your Grave Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 4215 | Our Avenged Jules: depending on what instrument its for what do you need? |
the original JULES Demolition Lover Age: - Gender: Female Posts: 19598 | It's for clarinet - Bb. I just needed to run some transposed music by, with someone who actually knows the stuff. I'm kinda rusty on it. XD |
Synyster Salute You in Your Grave Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 4215 | Sure, I'll help you. PM me with whatever I play trumpet, but the notes are the same because it's also Bb ;] |
XVampireX Joining The Black Parade Age: 29 Gender: Female Posts: 219 | WalkingCliche:always drum on things using ur fingers. just tap on everything and u will go fast and play more acuratly :] |
threads Shotgun Sinner Age: 27 Gender: Female Posts: 8038 | WalkingCliche:You don't really need to know any theory for shredding. If you get fast enough no one will hear how ugly it sounds. XD |
