Beginner Guitarist. Please Help!

[abalmer]

Hi all,

First off as a new member I would like to say hi to everyone! I am really excited to join the community! I am in need of some help! I am learning to play the guitar and could use some advice. My friend recommended the below E-Book on how to play guitar by Stefan Schyga and it has been pretty beneficial. However, it is a little broad and I could use some backup information. Would any members happen to have any free resources on how to play the guitar and/or expand on Stefan Schyga's theories? I appreciate all you help and let me know if you need any additional information. Thanks again!!

first thing you gotta do is trade in your guitar for a bass.

When you do find a guitar fourm and they are telling bass player jokes ect. ect.....................Remember this moment.

Thanks again and sorry for any inconvenience!

Why are you making fun of him? Do you want him to know that bass players are dicks? It takes some guts for a rank beginner to post on a public forum as this and ask for help.

I tried to look at the book you reference in your post and was required to "Prove I was a human" by asking me to click and get an insurance quote. I don't know if you're serious or a clever spammer.

It was only a friendly joke, I'm pretty sure that that OP can handle it.

Hi all,

No worries my feelings are not hurt, haha. I can take criticism. I appreciate all of your feedback.

I just went on the site again and I saw that "prove you are human" thing. I actually downloaded the e-book 2 weeks ago and that wasn't there so I haven't had to go on the site in a while. I just did it and nothing bad happened.

Anyways... thanks again everyone for your humor and help! Take care
