Guitar chord forum - chordie → Acoustic → HELP !
hey everyone, i just started trying to learn acoustic guitar because i have always wanted to play. the thing here is, im completely and totally lost : (
i can play most chords, as such, but when it comes to tabs im useless.
and ive tryed to play before and got discouraged, but i dont want that to happen again...
PLEASE help me. any tips, info, anything at all to help me out.
thank you everyone, xox : )
It is playing by numbers.
the strings are as follows:
e -------------------1---
B ----------------1------
G -------------2---------
D ----------3------------
A -------3---------------
E ---1-------------------
The numbers represent what fret you press down on and what string.
Below would be an example of a chord when all strings are strummed at the same time.
e ---1-------------------
B ---1-------------------
G ---2-------------------
D ---3-------------------
A ---3-------------------
E ---1-------------------
Slides are represented by a slash either up or down.
Hammer on = h
Pull off = p
Palm mute = pm
Vibrato = ~
There are places on this site that explain all of this but this will get you started.
I would also get a chord chart that tells you what fingers to use and how to place them. There is nothing like getting into a bad habbit then finding out later that you have to change that habbit. Very hard to do.
If I could do it all over again I would have gotten lessons. You find out all the short cuts and proper way to do things.

thank you very much 
You are welcome! Good luck!!!
So whats Vibrato??? 
and how do you 'pull off'
pick the note and basicly wiggle your finger to strech the string(push up and /or pulldown)
and how do you 'pull off'
You sure you want to know mate? 
i did think that...but little miss innocent here didnt wanna say it!! 
hahahaahah nice.
A pull off is simple you pick a note and pull off to another note on the same string. It is like picking with your finger that is fingering the first note.
Scrimmy, what is that ? Do you use a vibrator?
