GUITAR TALK

[Jebu]

I suggest you guys just sign up for a guitar class and learn properly for at least one year.
Trust me, you will be able to go further as a guitarist with a solid foundation.

I've met a lot of people who say they learn through listening to the radio and CD and playing along, but in the end you can't go far without knowing some more technical stuff.

Bentley (opposite Lot 10) used to have very good guitar teachers
You guys can also try ask for lessons at the Guitar Shop in Desa Sri Hartamas.

yeap agreed with jebu.
i had guitar lessons for about 2 and a half years on classical guitar mainly (but of course my teacher also taught me electric and stuff). gave me a good foundation on the fundamentals. and after that, most of what i know, i learned by myself.

I want to learn to play more than strumming.

HAHAHA... Right now, my chords are only G, C, D, Em, E, F, A and Am.... :(

Not many songs to play about on those chords right? HAHAHA... Tried learning Eric Clapton's songs using his unplug book... gave up after 1 hour.. trying to learn Layla.. HAHAHAHA

like this one 3p2, what it means?

p means pull off
bro this means u put your finger to 2 and 3.. pluck the string.. let the 3 sound then pull off your finger to the 2.. no need to do it fast.. just smooth.

h means hammer on
if it's 3h4 then let 3 sound then put your finger to 4.. its like the opposite of P.

hmm the only jiwang songs i play are from dashboard confessional :P damn nice

munky: it's ok already bro haha fren passed me his amp

rock on

if u guys like acoustic guitar and want some finger stretching exercise, learn anything from dave matthews band.. woo

 

[turbonetics]

learn how to play barre chords and power chords next. =)

 

[farique]

whats the difference between barre chords and power chords? :unsure:

 

[lozo]

i think its the same, only the term powerchord is more used ..generally. but the proper term is barre chord.(full notes to obtain a chord)

2 cents :)

 

[WinDz]

wanna practise those songs with alot of power chords ah .. simple songs will be "all the small things" from blink 182, "sk8er boy" from avril.. thats where i start off and not forgeting my all time favoutrite songs.. "stay together for the kids" blink 182


turbonetics: u can play da intro aledi rite? then da verse and chorus is easy aledi lor ..

for the verse its just keep cycling over these chords..

Em C G D
then ngam ngam before chorus will be
Em C D

then chorus:

(sigh have to save as jpeg and post ... cant have alot of space in this forum.. they will automatically take out and extra space bar.. -_-)

anyway hope this help

 

[hairspRay]

Yo saltydogg... can ya recommend nice songs fr dave matthews band to listen to?? Thanxxxx .... B) B)

 

[farique]

yeah!! now i know it.. power chord is much simple than berre chord is it? haiya!! curious again!! :P

"stay together 4 the kids"!!! i learn the songs for one whole day with my fren!! almost wan to cry when my finger dun wan to move!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[saltydogg]

a barre chord gives the chord a more erm FULLER sound. u try playing the same note power chord and barre chord.. u will hear the difference. it depends on what you need in the song then only u pick which to use..

the first song i ever learned was adam's song by blink.. until today its still damn good :P


hairspray: try playing satellite, ants marching, jimi thing, crash into me all by dave mattthews band

all VERY good songs.. :P

-ZTH guitarists rock on-

 

[farique]

Blink 182 songs is so much simple to learn!! i like them all!!
adam song is nice too!! :D
*get my guitar and play adam song"

 

[munky]

I suggest u guys learn metallica songs, (oldskool metallica) .
I bet u can play the guitar really well if u can master metallica's songs. But the super fast crazy solo no need la, confirm cannot hahaha. But the short/slow solo can la.

Try to start with seek n destroy or fade to black

Just my 2 cents :)
