GO! <br /> <br />In this guitar lesson, Jon MacLennan will teach you a few basic chords which are some of the most commonly used tones in popular music. So if you are a beginner, I suggest that you start learning these chords. <br />Begin with one chord at a time, before starting with the next one make sure you can play it easily and also you can get a clean sound from it. Once you have all the chords down, you can start with chord progressions but don't worry about strumming at this point, just play 4 downstrokes for each chord or just what I do in this lesson, just one strum and count 4 beats for each one. The next step is learning entire songs, but that is a subject for another lesson. <br />So, what is a chord? Three or more notes simultaneously sounded form a chord. Traditionally, chords have been built by superimposing two or more thirds and they are created with the notes of a scale. <br />Anyway this information could be pretty much for a very beginner, so for now just practice your chords and try to get the clearest sound you can! <br />Ok, hope this helps! That is all for today... And ofcourse, I suggest that you keep enjoying and learning from Jon MacLennan and all the staff of Guitarcontrol.com! Where?
