Learning to play guitar notes will be very hard if you
don't have your own guitar. You can't depend entirely on
the music sheets that you have. You have to hear the notes
being played on the guitar's fret board. Many beginners
fail to learn because thy don't have guitars on the hands.
Once you learn the notes you can read advanced music guitar
sheets.

Guitar notes are not really hard to learn as long as you
know what to do. You don't need an expert teacher in order
to learn these things. You can teach yourself note lessons
using DVD programs or internet guitar programs. You can
also use an instruction book. Still, if you can afford the
expensive guitar teachers, you can always hire them. But
let this serve as a reminder, no matter how good you
teacher is, if you don't have the right attitude in
learning, you will not learn anything. You see, guitar
playing is like the lessons that you learn in school. You
must know the notes by heart, and you have to be motivated
and you must be persistent.
Choose between acoustic or electric. There are two sides
when choosing which is which. The pros and the cons are
oftentimes weighed. Compare to an acoustic guitar, an
electric guitar is easier to operate but is more
complicated with all those strings attached and buttons to
push. Once you play an electric guitar, you need to buy
other equipment like an amplifier, cable and pick. The only
disadvantage with an acoutic guitar is that it is harder to
manipulate than that of the electric guitar. Aside from
that, it is the most advisable type of guitar to play with.
No picks needed. You can play with it just by strumming the
tip of your fingers on its strings. And it is cheaper than
an electric guitar.
Now that you have your options, start deciding on what will
suite you. Choosing is not difficult but you have to
consider a lot of principles.
Playing the very first songs on you guitar will be easier
if you know the notes of the guitar string. On this string,
there are three notes - E, F AND G. tHE second is B, D and
D. Now that you know the notes, you have to conduct some
exercises. Slowly play these noTes and make sure that you
concentrate to learn notes well.
You do not have to say all the notes out loud when you are
practicing. You can do this inside your mind and then
slowly play them. You must know the notes as well as their
names, and most especially their sounds. Know them by
heart. You can start by playing simple melodies like that
of nursery rhymes. After mastering the notes on the first
two strings, you have to proceed on the third string. G is
the open string and the other note is A. When you know
these notes already, start playing them together with the
other notes you've learned. Again, you must stick with
simple songs. You don't have to work on all the notes at
once. Try to master each of the notes and learn them
conciously. Even small children can learn guitar notes
easily.
Playing the guitar enhances you brain to work and initiate
such signals that commands your hands on mentally
memorizing where to put your finger on a particular fret,
pressing on the right chord and engaging in the proper
manner of strumming. The pleasure of gratification is
satisfied. Thus, your self esteem is working its way
through your personality. Playing is one thing but
mastering is another. So if you are still struggling to
play such tunes, don't give up that dream. You, yourself is
a unique individual. Out of ten people only one becomes a
pure musician. And by some luck, that person is a
guitarist. Some say talent is taught but real talent comes
from deep inside. It is that spirit within you that makes
you distinct.
