How long does it take to learn the guitar?

March 8th, 2010 by admin

Really it depends on the player but most people can get a pretty good handle on the guitar in just a few short months.  I always tell friends who want to learn that the best thing to do is start with a Guitar Lesson Book

Usually, you’ll focus on scales and chords at first but soon you’ll start learning tab.  If you aren’t familiar with tab its simply a type of sheet music for guitar.  Once you’ve got a solid understanding of tab, scales, and chords learning to play full songs is really as easy as picking the song you want to play.
