Strings

The first thing to always keep in mind when you first start out with a guitar is to get into daily habits…

Your first daily habit should be tuning your guitar strings. If you ignore this your guitar will sound like trash, so simply tune your guitar each day and you’ll be fine.

You can start out with an electric tuner but after a while, you should be able to tune your guitar by ear.

Songs

You should get into the habit when you’re first learning to play the guitar to stick with one song until you can play it all the way through… If you just give up half way through and move onto something easier, you’ll never get any better.

So pick one song and then master that song; then you can start on a new song.

Reading

You have to make it a point each day to study your music notes… It may take a while to memorize depending on the person but once you get the hang of it, you’ll have a much easier time playing through songs without having to stop and think.
