Awesome Guitar and the Black Strat
I dropped a purple Slushee on my black strat one day. Ha, no I didn't. I do own a blue Art Luthier dreadnought acoustic guitar, though.
Want to play awesome guitar? You can do it with 3 or 4 chords. Look on-line. Or take lessons from a pro.
First learn tabs or notes.
Build up those calluses on the tips of your fingers. The fingers will hurt at first. How fast you build up the calluses depends on how much you practice. Practice a lot and it won't be long before you don't feel the pain.
Practice a minimum of 1/2 hour each day for 5 days of each week.
A cartoon kid who played a toy piano was asked how he could play so well when the black keys were just painted on?
He said. "Practice."
Back to the Black Strat and David Gilmour in concert. Heard of Pink Floyd? I own their CD, "The Dark Side of the Moon." David Gilmour is their lead guitarist and the voice of Pink Floyd.
Pick a musician you admire and try to play like him or her. If you can play better in two weeks pick another hero.
Have fun.
