I have created two videos where I have demonstrated the opening chords(mostly the same chords come over and over again in both the songs) of 'Don't Cry' from Guns N' Roses and 'Holiday' from Scorpions. These two rock songs are quite easy to learn songs on guitar esp. for beginners.You can find them at the bottom of this article. I will be uploading more videos(of good sound and video quality) pretty soon. I have also discussed some good online guitar courses that you can check out.
Note: By the way In the next post on the same blog I will post some more high quality videos of other easy beginner guitar rock songs.
Well, coming to the online guitar courses, in this article I have discussed some of the best and affordable online guitar lessons best suited for kids, beginners and guitar enthusiasts. I have created this article because there are a number reviews that you will find on the internet that claims to teach beginners and will enable you to play guitar in 1 day or 1 week. Those are absolute BS. Because there is no shortcut to learning anything. One has to really work hard. Having said about working hard, it should be done in the right way guided by the right guitar tutor or tutors. The below guitar courses do just that. So please go through my review and I am sure that you will find a suitable guitar course of your choice amongst them because I have included only the ones suited for beginners here.
