#3 Basic Notes and Chords for the Guitar

Hi everyone! Today I'm going to talk about basic guitar chords. Well, since there are a numerous number of guitar chords, I'll sort them by their major notes (ex: A chords, G chords, C chords, etc.)

 If you see this hand, there are numbers for each of the fingers. I put these numbers to explain which fingers to put in each flats when you finger the guitar.

The first chords I'm going to show you are the 4 basic A chords. (respectively, A, Am, A7, and AM7)

 This time, it's B chords. B, Bm, B7, BM7. What you have to look closely here are Bm and BM7. The numbers 2 3 4 below means you put your fingers starting on the 2nd flat.

Next, it's the C chords.

Same thing, for Cm, you should start fingering from the 3rd flat.

These are basic D chords: D, Dm, D7, DM7

E chords: E, Em, E7, EM7

Next are F chords, and a lot of people say it is the hardest chord to make a nice sound.

There are F, Fm, F7, Fm7

Finally, it's the G chords. G, Gm, G7, and GM7

These were some basic chords of the guitar. It could be really hard at first. Your hands will hurt, and the sound might be weird. But if you tolerate the pains, you'll get used to them and will later be able to perform really fancy songs.

These are the basic chords so take time and try practicing them. Have a good day everyone :)

#2 Choosing Your Own Guitar

Hi guys! Today, I'm going to talk about what kind of guitar you should buy. (This post is especially for people who are beginning to learn the guitar.)
Well, first of all, because I assume that people who read this are beginners, I will exclude expensive guitars from our choice.
Actually, the best way to buy a nice sweet guitar is to go buy one together with someone who knows about guitar well. But it's pretty hard to do so, so I will tell you some simple ways to tell if it's appropriate for you or not.

1. Buy it in a Professional Guitar Shop.

There are a lot of places where to buy guitars. But I would highly recommend you to not buy it in the internet. It's because you can't make sure in what condition the guitar will be delivered. 
Also, in department stores or big marts, there are only a small number of choices, and most of them are just for views. So the best way is to find a Professional Guitar Shop near you, and          (This is the picture of my guitar)
go get your guitar.

2. Look at the appearances of the guitars.

This is a pretty important part. Check if there are no scratches, and also check if the adherend is clean too. Additionally, check the spaces between the fingerboards. Sometimes there are some guitars with fingerboards that are asymmetry. So check those, and lastly check the spaces between the strings too. If the spaces are too big, your hands might hurt too much while playing, especially if you are a beginner.

3. Setting the Guitar

Once you get your guitar, you must set it. Here, "setting" refers to adjusting the height of the strings, adjusting flats and neck of the guitar, etc. If a guitar is set well, it gets really comfy to play it. You get to set your guitar where you buy it, or there are some places for doing this job too.


Well, these were some basic things to consider when buying your first guitar. I guess the nice price will be about $50~$200. Good luck guys and have a good day!

#1 Starting Guitar!

Hi everyone! I'm Seung Hyun, (but call me Michael) Everyone have probably seen someone playing the guitar and thought it was pretty cool. I think it is really nice to know to have a instrument to play, and I recommend you guys to try playing the guitar. 

Well, there are generally 3 types of guitars: acoustic, electronic, and classic. From these three, my blog is going to talk  about acoustic. 

Today, I will not talk about it a lot. I hope anyone who is interested in playing the acoustic guitar will visit my blog often! You can practice and play it to your friends, families, or maybe someone you have a crush in.

In the next post, I will be talking about how and what kind of guitars you should buy and prepare before starting to learn the guitar!
