Learning to play the guitar - teacher John Neko

Description: You can choose one of the following guitars or learn how to play each:

The ukulele is a small and lightweight instrument. It is very easy to learn - and it is much easier to start playing on it than on a regular guitar. It is easy for kids to learn to play because the ukulele has soft nylon strings. There are 4 types of ukulele: soprano, concert, tenor and baritone. The most common ukulele is the soprano. You can play the ukulele with the help of fingering or with the help of chords. Playing by chords is, as a rule, the initial stage of any guitarist and ukulist. At the first stage, several basic chords and types of fights are learned. The ukulele has special fingering (guitar picks don't work at all), but they depend on the position of the fretboard. Therefore, at the first stage, it is more convenient to accompany the battle.

Acoustic guitar. On acoustic guitar lessons, they teach the correct positioning of hands and tuning the instrument, reading notes, tablature and chord schemes, and independently analyzing songs by chords.

Electric guitar. The electric guitar training program is compiled individually for each student - taking into account his level, abilities, desires. The basic techniques, playing with chords, by notes, tablatures are mastered. On electric guitar lessons, hearing, a sense of rhythm develop, and the musical horizons expand. In the lessons of playing the electric guitar, the technical side of the issue is studied - combo amplification, gadgets, fine tuning of the instrument.

Bas-guitar. The training plan is drawn up individually by the teacher for the student based on the level of his training and goals.
