I'm 15 and I'd like to learn how to play the guitar. I can play the flute very well, but that's it. My aunt has an acoustic guitar that she can lend me, but before I start, I'd like to know it's difficulty level so I can prepare myself. I don't want to quit in the middle of it. Is it hard to learn? Are there some things that I should know about the guitar before I start?

I have always wanted to learn to play and I just love hearing people play, I love acoustic so I decided I need to get a guitar and learn, I'll practice day and night cuz I really wanna get good at this.. the thing is I don't know anything about what a good guitar is and what I should stay away from.. eventhough I'm basically a beginner, I don't want to get a "beginner" guitar cuz I know I'm not gonna be able to buy another one b4 sometime (financially talking).. so plz u experts out there.. I need advice on where I should start and also do u think a used guitar would be a good way to go (I may get a good one at a low price).. your help is greatly appreciated..

Are there any good pop or modern opera songs that are sung in the bass range? I love to sing, and I have a very low voice. I have a pretty good range but am more comfortable as a bass. Any suggestions?

So im getting a new electric guitar for Christmas and im not sure to get a fender or a gibson. i like acoustic sounds but i still love to rock and roll when im in the mood. I love guitars that have and edge but are still classy. If you could tell what guitar to get also that would be amazing!

Do you think that it would be a good idea if I ca learn piano grade 1 then switch to guitar then work on it... Cos you learn all the basics form the start so I can just work my butt off to learn how to play FURELISE in iano or rock on...

I really cant decide about this so do you think that these is a good idea?

Is the C key supposed to be in line with the A key? (My G is offset) There are lines in the picture to show which keys are which.

How do you know when you are really ready to perform in front of an audience? I can play my music well when in the privacy of a practice room (I play the piano), but I never know if that means that I'm really ready to perform or if it's just that I am doing well because no one's listening.

How can you tell if your comfort with the piece in practice room is at a level that will carry over into a live performance?

Well I have all my majors memorized, and I know how to play my melodic minors, but I always forget how to turn a major scale INTO a natural minor. I started in 6th grade and now I'm in 8th but I'm looking into playing jazz and I need a better knowledge of scales and chords. =]

I want to learn to play guitar and was wanting to know a good acoustic guitar for me. I like music from bands like The scene aesthetic, Taking Back Sunday, Secondhand Serenade, and bands like that. Thats the kind of music I want to learn to play.

How can I use my knowledge in clarinet and apply it to another instrument so the transition wont be to hard.

2007-10-23 13:24:10 · 9 answers · asked by Hola. 3

I started playing the clarinet just over 10 years ago through school. I took music the whole way through school (6 years), was in every band (which played university-level music and toured before...just to give you an idea of my level...). I also decided to pursue RCM certification (Canadian...) in the 5th year and had passed Grade 8 (of 10) by the end of the 6th. Once in university, I played in a symphonic band and an orchestra over the first two years. However, for the past 2 years, I've had braces, and didn't want to play. I'd now like to get back into it, but my clarinet cramps my style--I'd already been complaining about it 5 years ago! I currently own a Buffet-Crampon B12, which I've read is good for a "student"...but I'm guessing that means high school. I am hoping to get back into it, playing with my university's orchestra (and, for detail's sake, we supposedly have the best music faculty in the country).

Lots of details there, I know. Any suggestions?
