What Is The Best Way To Learn To Play Guitar ?

Q: which one is the "better" way to learn to play guitar ? self learning, thru web and and books or get yourself a teacher ? i'm on a very tight budget and time right here. by the way, what is a decent book to learn guitar ? and a web site for that purpose perhaps ?

A:The best way is to use all ways. spread your money out between a teacher, books and the web. you can find lessons and tab etc., at http://members.wbs.net/homepages/t/w/a/twangme.html .................................................................../twangin­..html .................................................................../twangon­..html get a free catalog with tons of guitar books to consider at: http://www.jumpnet.com/~musicianworkshop books with an audio source, tape, cd or video are a great way to learn.. You'll probably

want to start with a tablature book, but don't over look learning standard notation too long, and do learn it. If you get a teacher who is responsible and intelligent.. and a lot of them aren't...some of them even hate teaching.. he should be able to tell you which books to start with... and allow you to come in for one lesson per month instead of one a week,.. and between that and using the web you ought to make some pretty good progress. don't overlook playing with other beginners..it's really good for your timing, just to pick one example... and usually you can learn everything another beginner knows in no time.. and you can teach him or her what you know, too..
