Now that we have already known the functionality of the parts of a guitar and how to tune it using the traditional tuning procedures, we are now ready to learn the basics of playing the guitar. But of course, before the basics, you must be comfortable with your position in handling the guitar. One of the common proper playing positions of guitar is the classical position where you step your left foot a little higher while sitting on a chair while holding your guitar. Proper playing position is very important for you to be able to fluently stroke the strings and easily finger the chords. Other proper playing positions include right leg position, crossed leg position, standing position using a stool or using a support snap or strap in your shoulders. In playing a guitar, the right hand is used in striking the string as you desire for the most compatible tone of what you are to play. Meanwhile, the left hand is used in fingering notes on the guitar fretboard. For the leftist, it is either you stroke the strings still using your right hand or own a specialized leftist guitars that is now available in the music stores. Using your right hand, there are two ways to strike the strings depending on your desired tone for what you are playing. First is the chord strumming. In chord strumming, you will strike the strings almost simultaneously to have a continuing effect. There are two ways in chord strumming, the downward stroke and the upward stroke. When you are to play using chord strumming, you may use either downward or upward strumming or the combination of the two until you achieve your desired beat and tune when playing your favorite song. Next is plucking. Plucking is another way of playing the guitar where you finger each chords in succession rather than striking them together as in chord strumming. The commonly used and practical way of plucking is with the use of four fingers, the thumb, index finger, middle finger and ring finger. First, the thumb will strike the bass note of the chord. Next is to use the index finger to play the first treble note, followed by the middle finger to strike the second treble note and the ring finger to play the third treble note. The best way of learning is to practice based on the instructions until you become perfectly adept in plucking and chord strumming. You can talk about...
