The purpose of this method is to share my musical experience with anyone who is interested in learning to play guitar.
Playing an instrument is something very relaxing and fun. Can you imagine being able to play all those cool songs that you like on your guitar, or just being able to play cool solos, Well here is the chance!. Follow me and learn cool things.
If you visit
here, you will find several videos that I have being posting with the purpose of learning from them. When I record this videos I pay close attention to my mistakes or weak points, then I develop exercises to overcome those weaknesses, but at the same time I share with the world my little knowledge on the guitar, is all about having fun anyways!
Any click is very welcome!
Here is the trick! If you like to learn how to play guitar with freedom you need to be able to have complete control of the right and left hands. You need to have a good cense of timing, recognize pitch, tones and speed. You must be able to play with your eyes close, letting your fingers do the job.
Mistakes? don’t worry about it! They always get in your way, but developing techniques to overcome them is very important.
I remember the first time I try to play my guitar, it was so frustrating, I was scare of crossing strings, or just placing my fingers on the frets, it was painful, uncomfortable and it sounded terrible. I couldn’t play a note clearly and never even dream about playing a song. But due to my interest on the instrument I got better as the time past by. If you are just beginning to play guitar I understand how you feel. But don’t worry, because if I learned it, so you surely can also.
In this lesson I wont teach you all the things that I being learning but I can tell you that I will be posting more lessons and if you fallow them I promise you that you will become a master, maybe even better than me, cause its being hard for me to learn. Maybe there is a big talent hidden inside you, and you don’t even know!
Search for all the basic chords first than all, learn them by heart: C, D, E, F, G, A, B strum your guitar don’t matter if it sounds bad, cause the purpose is to free your hands. Break the barrier that wont let you play. I will be glad to help with the little that I know about guitar. Search for my lessons, and if you know less than me learn from them.
Become a Lead Guitar Master!

I took guitar lessons for two and a half years myself when I was a teenager. The woman taught me everything she knew. She got to where she was just taking my mother’s money and going over the same things that she had already taught me. We had recitals and everything. I hated the recitals. Now I can’t remember anything that I was taught back then. I guess it is very important that you keep at it or you will forget it all. Now I have so much to do that I don’t have the time or interest in trying to learn it all over again, but I think it is great that you are taking the time to teach others what you know.
