Electric Guitar Lessons...

Like acoustic guitar, several things should be learned first in an electric guitar lesson. The idea is to know what to look for in a good how to play the guitar online lesson. The electric guitar is very similar to the acoustic guitar, but the things you need to learn first are the same.
 
The parts of the instrument need to be learned immediately. The parts of the electric guitar are:
1.       Headstock
2.       Tuning keys
3.       Nut
4.       Neck
5.       Frets
6.       Neck joint
7.       Body
8.       Pickups
9.       Control knobs
10.   Bridge, possibly with a whammy bar.
 
The strings are those wires that run from the bottom of the body, over the pickups and up the neck to the headstock. There are six of them tuned as follows: E, A, D, G, B and E, biggest to smallest. It is suggested strongly that you learn to read music and recognize these notes first as a starting point.

A right-handed player holds the guitar pick in the right hand. In that first electric guitar lesson, the proper way to hold the guitar pick should be taught. There is a certain way to hold the guitar pick that affects the way you will play. How you pick the strings is called your "attack".
 
The left hand wraps around the neck with the fingers over the strings. The wrist should be arched and the fingers bridged to avoid accidentally muted strings. Practice will make this second nature for you.
 
Now we will actually make something that sounds like music. Reading music is strongly recommended for the future of your electric guitar lesson plan. The skill of translating written notation to the neck of the guitar is completely crucial here.
 
Another vital item is learning the notes on the strings. Begin at the 5th and 6th strings, working towards the thinner strings. Learning this material as part of an electric guitar lesson is important to learn chords.
 
Chords are important as part of an electric guitar lesson plan. Chords are made up of three or more notes. These notes are played together and are harmonically pleasant. This is where you should also start to learn some basic theory. Theory, among other things, helps you build chords anywhere on the fret board any time you want.
 
First there is the barre chord. A barre chord is made by placing the index finger of the left hand across all six strings; the rest of the fingers are on the frets to form a chord. This skill can be used to play any chord anywhere on the neck at any time.
 
Next, there is the power chord. This is a two-note chord made up of a root note plus a 5th above the root of the chord. I told you earlier that learning theory was vital, didn't I?
 
Any decent electric lesson plan will also include a study of scales. Every player NEEDS to learn scales. Scales are the building block that everything else is based on. Once you learn scales, you will have mastery at your fingertips.
