FULL COURSE: truefire.com More guitar lessons for beginners: www.truefire.com On Twitter: www.twitter.com On Facebook: www.truefire.com Today we’re going to work on proper posture and hand positions when playing guitar (lefties–don’t forget that when I say “right,” that means left for you, and vice versa). Sometimes a simple adjustment to your body helps break through barriers that may be preventing you from getting the sound you desire. We are all shaped a little differently, so make small adjustments that help you physically relax and feel comfortable. Pay special attention to forming good habits right from day one. Only then can you be sure to please your ear with your talent! Additionally, I’ll show you how to easily tune your guitar. You should begin each day’s lesson by setting up your posture and hand positions, and then getting in tune. I’ll also talk a little about song keys. Remember that the goal of this course is to quickly enable you to play guitar and sing along on your own or with your friends. Playing along with your favorite recordings might be difficult at first, but that will surely change as you become more proficient.
good job.
It doesn’t really matter if you’re right or left handed to hold a guitar. It’s true there are two different types of guitars: Left handed and right handed. But a left handed person can play a right handed guitar (Like what the guy in the video has) just as easily as a right handed person, and a right handed person can learn to play a left handed guitar just the same. If it’s really important, do what Jimi Hendrix did.
Does it matter if im right or left handed to hold a guitar? Please reply!
Additional tips: Keep your nails cut (at least on the fretting hand), wash your hands before you play, and wipe down/clean your strings and guitar after each session.
pause it at 3:59 and he looks stoned
I put my finger in the midle of the fret and didnt get a buzz,guess Ill have to go get some beer after all.

@LfunkeyA ok thank you again!
@yourown99
the sounds you make depend on many things: hardware, effects settings, software, your own playing style, etc.
@LfunkeyA thank you! another question: is it true that you can make any sound out of any guitar with the right hardware?
@yourown99
it’s technically inefficient, but if you stick to that, you can be great with it

I’m left handed as well, but I personally think it won’t, since you’re use both of your hands anyways.
Nice job…thanks for the tutorial…
