People ask me on a regular basis how I learned to play the guitar. I always respond with “Lots and lots of practice and hardwork.” When I was just starting out with guitar instruction, it was hard work. I sat down at home, printed some tablature, and began learning how to count Crows. I took so long to become proficient. My problem was that I didn’t actually have any beginner guitar instruction. I was a young man who had no plans in high school and had lots of time. I guess it was fine for me at the time, but I could’ve learned more in weeks than I did in years!
It would have helped me out so much if I had someone to show me how to hold my pick, tune my guitar, do a proper hammer-on, alternate different picking patterns, and basically take me through everything step by step. Even though I had “private lessons” later on, I was only able to get as much instruction from an instructor for 2 hours per week when I took a guitar class at my local college. Although I liked my teacher and the techniques he taught me were great, I always wanted more instruction.
