Guitar Lessons: What should I learn next?

4 Comments

I already know basic open chords, power chords, the arrangement of the notes in the guitar, hammer ons, pull offs, palm muting.
I can pull out these songs:
- Dammit by Blink 182
- Iron Man by Black Sabbath (no solo)
- I love rock & roll by Joan Jett
- Fat lip by Sum 41
- Fist date by Blink 182
- American Idiot by Greenday
- Bad Reputation by Joan Jett
- Beat your heart out by The Distillers

* I've been playing for 2 months
*I know how to read music, I also know how to play flute, zampona( peruvian instrument), and some piano…

learn to keep time, learn to read music, learn charts, learn jazz, learn legato techniques, staccato techs, learn all your modes and pentatonic scales, all major and minor scales. who cares if you know a bunch of songs, get your technique down and those songs will come so easy to you. learn with your ear too.

    Learn some blues scales. Start with learning them in one key say E or A. Once you learn them in one position it's easy to shift them around to the other keys. This will help you learn how to play and improvise solos and make your own music. Keep practicing what you've been working on. Stick with it. Play everyday and pretty soon it will be like an addiction, you'll have to feel those strings under your fingers.

    Can you read music? Can you do finger picking? Do you understand the theory of chords?

    I agree with the first post, study the blues, you'll be suprised how much modern music is based off it.
