When playing/learning guitar, when do you play “chords” or strings within those chords?

963 viewsOther

I don’t really understand how to play guitar or even how to approach learning.

Do you just memorize chords? When do you play individual strings instead of a full strum? Are certain notes and chords assigned to different keys?

It seems way above my head lol.

Help.

Your typical progression is something like:

-Learn the parts of the guitar

-Learn how to tune the guitar

-Learn the string names

-Learn basic strumming and picking

-Learn basic open chords

-Learn a couple simple melodies

-Learn more advanced chords

-etc etc

Best place to start is with a book or online resource. I recommend something like [https://www.justinguitar.com/](https://www.justinguitar.com/)

There are tutorial videos, practice planners, apps to help with tuning and playing along with songs, and other stuff for free.
