How to master Beginner Level


"In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, in the expert's mind there are few."

- Shunryu Suzuki

OK, so by now you already have a guitar with which to practice with. Now it gets fun.

Mastering this level will require you to practice many techniques and learn some basic theory. Yes, I know it sucks, but trust me on this one.

Because there is a lot to learn here, I’m going to be splitting up the Beginner Level into chunks, and you can use this post as a go-to, as I will be linking the rest of the articles from this one.

This is what we have to learn to be Masters of Beginner Level guitar:

  1. Notes and intervals fundamentals.

  2. How to tune your guitar.

  3. The Fretboard is your friend: get to know it.

  4. Tempos and bars?

  5. How to read and write music.

  6. Finger movement.

  7. Flatpicking and fingerpicking.

  8. Chord diagrams.

  9. Open chords.

  10. Major and Minor barre chords.

  11. The power of Power Chords.

  12. The subtle magic of Palm Muting.

  13. All about guitar strings.

  14. How to change Strings, step by step.

  15. How To Care For Your Guitar | Keep It In Optimal Shape For Years To Come

  16. How To Use A Metronome | Practice Like A Pro.

I recommend you start from the first item and work your way along the whole list. Don't skip any subject, no cheating allowed!
