Hi All,
Have had an Electric guitar for 2 years now, thought it was a great idea, have always wanted to play.
I'm nowhere close to being able to play this thing...........I just don't put the time in and maybe i loose interest in it for a while. Well, its time to pick ip up again.
I only know the 5 cords, C A G E D, and can slowly change between these, have never tried to play a song, I know i have a long way to go............
Do I get a teacher to motivate me? Do I just pick it up ever night for 15 min? Do I need to know what type of music i would like to play, because i do love blues but it sounds so hard to play.
Any ideas or help would be great.
There are 1000's of websites out there, i think i have visited half of them !!!
Should i learn Tabs or read music???
I'm not after a quick fix, because i know there isn't one..but i just want to get onto the right track.
Oh and a nother question: For those who do play, when you pick up the guitar and play by yourself, is it a relaxing thing to do? Is that a silly question?
I have so many things going on in my life at the moment but i think it is important to have "your own time"
