  10. Guitar Chords
    Guardian_MOD

    Yo all, i came up with a little light homework. Im a new player for a six string, clasical achoostic guitar, please excuse my spelling of it though. Anyways i am a bit beyond new, and one of my teachers from school gave me a sheet listing the chords for the guitar such as A minor, Fsharp, the works. The problewm is i lost that cheet and i need a new one. Geting to the point i was woundering if any of you might have any idea on where to find a site listing the chords, and perhaps a diagram of how to play them. Anyways if you can help greaty, if you cant, no big del. Thanks for taking the time to read the post at least, and i hope to hear from someone i dont know soon,

  11. string bending technique problem
    buzz

    I really need help with my string bending technique.
    When I bend a string(particularly the B string), I get noise from adjacent strings.
    I am using a fair bit of overdrive and even when strings are muted I
    cant get a clean bend.
    This is only a problem when releasing the string.eg.
    bending the B string at the 15th fret and next picking E at 12th fret hammer on to E at 15th. This is resulting in muted but obvious sound from D and G strings.
    Can someone please suggest an exercise or technique to fix this

Only problem being is that i dont know the chords by site…can any one help by writing a comprehensive guide to playing a blues rift…i.e ‘you put your first finger on the second string of the 3rd fret and your blah blah blah…Id be so grateful if any one can spare the time for this.

  21. Help
    Karla Lind

    My son is seven years old and has had a passion for music since he was two. I bought him a guitar for his birthday because he admired it and could speak of nothing else that he wanted for a present. I want to help him in anyway that I can, but I have never played an instrument and I do not know where to start. My time is limited and I can not afford any lesson locally so any help that you can provide will be greatly appreciated. I just don’t want to let my son down and I want to encourage his dreams.
