Musical Direction

Question = I've been fooling around with a guitar for 30 years, no schooled knowledge of the instrument,just by ear.I like to play to Larry Corell,John McLaughlin,Joe Pass,Tal Farlow,etc.I am a sound engineer working in the jazz idiom only.looking for a little direction without having to read music,can you help?

Answer = Someone once told me that if you don't care where you're going, any road will take you there. I think your first step would be to decide what it is you'd like to accomplish. First, decide on a musical style like rock, jazz, folk, etc. Then you need to determine if you want to focus on Rhythm or Lead work. Each focus can take a lifetime to master. After you define your musical goal, e-mail me again. Good Luck

Guitar Fretboard

Question = I am considering learning how to play the guitar. I have one question in regards to the strings and the notes that confuse me. Why are the same notes (a-g) repeated throughout the guitar fretboard and how do you know which string to play if you're told to play an "E" note? I realize this is probably a stupid question but I've just started and would like someone to help explain this to me. Thanks for your help

Answer = As you can see in the guitar finngerboard below, the same note can be played in several different positions on the guitar.

As conventional music notation is not very useful, a system called Tablature was invented. The "Tab" system shows you exactly where to place your fingers to get the desired notes. To learn more about Tab, I provided a link to a Tab primer for you below.

When you scroll over links on your pages you are not able to see the destination of the link in the status bar at the bottom. That makes navigation around your site difficult. Just a thought. Thanks again and have a great day.

[The Index finger is shown as a "1". The Middle finger is designated as a "2". The Ring finger is notated as a "3" and the Little or Pinky finger as a "4". Strings that are not to played are marked with an "x". Strings without a finger number or an "x" are to be played as an open string.]
