There are lots of reasons why someone picks up a guitar. It could be to show off to friends or because they have dreams of hitting it big as a rock star or even for no reason other than they love the sound a guitar makes.
Whatever your reasons, it’s always nice to find something free to help you learn new tips and tricks along the way. So when it comes to online there are many routes and choices you have to help you.
There are lots of articles and sites dedicated to helping you learn the basics such as which notes are which and what a major and minor chord is. Also forums are a good idea to ask questions to people who love guitar as much as you do and who knows you could make a friend or too.
Another way you could play guitar for free online is with videos. Sites like YouTube have people just playing a song to actual instruction but you have to be careful because sometimes there can be misinformation out there. If the lesson is not very good then so will your playing.
So when you’re looking for free lessons online look for step by step lessons, sound files and even some games to help with you recognition of tones and tuning your guitar can be very handy.
Also you should learn TABs and there are lots of videos and information on those at sites such as about.com
Playing and learning the guitar for free online can sometimes be a pain because of what I said before with misinformation and this information can be scattered all over. If you’re comfortable with this then by all means I hope this information was helpful, but for those of you wanting step-by-step I suggest this website to get you started down the right path.
