That’s why you need to tune your guitar strings according to their notes so that they have their perfect pitch. And learning how to tune a guitar properly is one of the most important things you will ever learn. Imagine if your strings aren’t tune well, you will be playing out of tunes and sounds like a complete mess! People will raise eyebrows on you and say “Does this guy know how to play guitar? He doesn’t even know how to tune it!”

So how do we do it? How do we tune our guitar?

Well, there are some ways to do it. I’ll let you pick what’s best for you:

• You can check out this simple online guitar tuner video. This video is quick and easy to follow that will allow you to tune your strings under two minutes. This is an easy choice if you want clear example on how to tune your guitar.
• Or you can learn how to tune your guitar by your own ears. I’ll give you two main techniques to follow. They both use what so called relative pitch. Don’t worry it’s not as scary as it heard, in fact it’s kinda fun how you can tune your guitar using relative pitch.
• Or… and this is the easiest; you can always get yourself a guitar tuner. This small yet handy tool will guide and gives you the perfect pitch according to its natural note. You should have one. It’s not too expensive though.

Well that’s all you need to know about tuning your guitar I guess. Remember whenever you want to play your guitar, make sure that you had your guitar strings tuned; or you’ll know the consequences. Tune your guitar up and let’s get going to next lesson.

When I first got guitar in hand and try to learn basic guitar chords on my own, I didn’t really know how to do it. The whole weird chord forms are just killing me. So I made up my own. Sometimes I got lucky, some of them sound cool, but for most part well I made up my own chords what do you think it would like?

But after bit guidance from more experienced players, I managed to finally know how to play chords properly. Chords that sound pleasant and inviting people to come over rather than ran and cover their ears.
And the same goes to you. When it comes to chords learning you simply needs some directions. That’s all.

And you don’t need:

• Your Natural Talent
• Luck
• Private Lesson with Steve Vai
• Broke you out expensive guitar
• 18 years practice a day
• Bigger and stronger hands

You don’t need all of that just to play chords. So if you don’t need such things then what do you need? It’s simple; you just have to want to learn and some time. That’s all. In fact I would say if you capable to read this, you will be able to learning that. You will be able to play some song in no time. Try run through the sample progressions, practice your fingers changing between chords, take your time and make sure it sounds clean. Take as long as your time to make sure that you’re comfortable holding and switching between basic chords that you learning.

Take it easy. There’s no rush. No one demanding that you have to be great guitar player over night. Do it for fun and keep practicing and repair some mistakes, then before you realize you’ll start getting better. Rapidly.
