acoustic guitar lessons

Questions & Answers with Neil Hogan - #1.12

Q. Are acoustic guitar lessons the best place for me to get started if I want to be an electric guitar player?

A. I am a firm believer in starting with acoustic guitar lessons in general for anyone wanting to play the guitar. The main principals that pertain to all types and styles of guitar playing are best explained and practiced onan acoustic or classical guitar.

Many of the techniques and styles you will play on the electric guitar are more specialized than those you will play on the acoustic. In general, most things you learn acoustically will carry over into electric. The reverse is not necessarily true.

One of the dangerous things about starting with the electric guitar is it is very easy to press down the notes on the finger board. This can help create a lazy guitar player.
