For students who have long thought about picking up the acoustic or electric guitar, this course will provide an easy-access foundation that will get you playing. When first learning guitar, it is important to have the material presented in stages, in an enjoyable way that allows you to grasp the basics of the instrument and music. The course begins simply with the parts of the guitar, the names of the strings, tuning, and technique—whether finger-style or pick. It then explores the basics of music theory with such topics as scales, triads, power chords, and fingering and shapes. At the end of this course, students will understand the structure, parts, and accessories of the instrument, in addition to an understanding of its basic maintenance. Electric guitar players will learn the operation of their instrument along with basic options for amplification, effect pedals, and sounds. Students will also learn to develop correct technique and apply theory concepts to their playing. They will have the foundational knowledge necessary to pursue most intermediate guitar courses.

The Twelve Half Steps and Basic Notation

While you don’t need to be an expert on music theory to play guitar, it is important to know the basic building blocks of music. With this understanding, music will no longer be shrouded in mystery or complexity. This lesson presents fundamental musical ideas in a fun, non-intimidating way.

[MUSIC]

Now some of you might to be a little worried.

Wait a minute, I don't read music.

Well it's not absolutely necessary that you're

a great sight reader in order to be a great guitarist.

So what we're going to do is we're going to give you the basics that you

need, set you on the right path.

And should you decide to continue studying,

you'll have what you need moving forward.

Now we've already talked about where notes happen on the fretboard, and

now we're going to actually look at where they occur in written music.

So we're going to start now talking about

reading and writing music on the staff.

This is called the staff.

These are the lines on which music notation for

your instrument will be written.

At the beginning of the staff we have the clef.

The clef determines the range or

register of sounds of the notes, that would be written on the staff.

For example, a bass player will have a different clef called a bass clef,

to specify the lower range of the notes on his instrument.

The guitar is written in a range or

register that is denoted by the treble clef.

There are other instruments that use this clef too, such as a flute.

Some instruments have a range of more than one clef,

such as a piano, which uses both bass and treble clefs.

Here is an example of notes in the spaces.

We have F, A, C, and E.

Now here we have notes that are written on the actual lines.

We have E, G, B, D and F.

Now if we go above the lines and

we go on the actual lines, we have A, C and E.

These are called ledger lines.

If we go above the staff in between the ledger lines, we have G, B and D.

Now below the staff, if we go in between

the ledger lines, we have D, B, G and E.

Below the staff on the ledger lines we have C, A, and F.

Now we're going to look at the range of notes on the guitar.

This is where the open strings are written on the staff.

[APPLAUSE] E, A, D,

G, B and E.

[MUSIC]

So for those of you who might be looking for

a good way to make this whole reading thing a little less painful,

one thing that you might do is you can try simply using acronyms.

For example, you'll notice that the notes in

the spaces spell the word face, F-A-C-E.

And the notes on the line are E, G, B, D, and F.

Some people use the acronym, every good boy deserves fudge.

It's a good way to remember the notes.

One more comprehensive way that you might try, is to get a few pages of blank

staff paper and fill in random notes without naming them,

just fill in from top to bottom random notes.

Both above, in between, on the lines and below the staff.

And then go back and simply point to the note and name it.

Now if you do that for enough pages,

eventually you'll get tired of counting lines and spaces and then you'll remember.

The note after awhile will just pop out and say, I'm an E and I'm an F.

Now when you get good at that and

it doesn't take you very long to recognize a note, then go back to the same

pages that you've written of notes and try locating some of those notes.

Point at the note and try locating the physical note on your instrument,

like that's a B and then you grab a B, and that's a G and then you grab a G.

And that way, its a good way towards moving towards learning the physical

location of the notes that are on your instrument, and

where they lie on the staff.

Tab or tablature, might be described as a more elaborate fretboard map.

Tab is a form of music notation that describes

fingering positions on the instrument.

It's been around for hundreds of years, however in more recent times

it's become very popular, and quite important and necessary

in helping the majority of music-loving guitarists learn their favorite tunes.

It's an easy and

quick way to get the music into your hands, and onto your instrument.

With tab, the 6 lines represent the 6 strings of the guitar.

The numbers on the strings represent the fret on which the note should be played.

If the numbers occur in vertical column,

it means that they're all played at the same time.

Now it's important that tabs should not be used as an excuse to

avoid learning traditional music notation.

It's a very, very useful tool,

in addition to just telling you where and what to play.

Because things occur on the guitar in the same places, we have an A here,

we have an A here, and we have an A here.

Sometimes you can use tab to specify the locations,

which a certain melody might be played.

In addition, you can use it as a tool just to reinforce

some of the learning of the traditional notation,

like it will specify that the E occurs on the 5th string on the 7th fret.

[SOUND] And so

you can verify in cases where you have the traditional music along with the tab.

You can just verify that that is [SOUND] the note that is actually written above.

So it's important not to use it as an excuse not to learn how to read

traditional music, but use it as a tool to help you on this journey.
