How to learn the guitar and how to choose a good guitar

Understand the production materials, a good guitar is made of Indian Brazilian rosewood veneer side board and back plate, spruce red pine veneer for the panel, ebony for the fingerboard, this kind of piano is relatively expensive and the timbre is better, a little lower grade is made of mahogany veneer, and then only the panel is made of spruce red pine veneer "face single piano", this kind of piano timbre is inferior to the "full single piano" but the price is relatively low, and then it is basically a variety of artificial plywood made of the piano, this kind of piano is cheap, the timbre is much inferior, But it is also relatively popular. The ** factor of the guitar can generally be seen intuitively from the production material.

There is also the question of guitar intonation, and if a piano can't even guarantee the minimum intonation, don't talk about anything else. The way to identify is to see if the overtones of the guitar 12 frets are consistent with the solid tone.

Then there is the comfort level, which needs to be tried by yourself, because everyone's finger conditions are different, so you have to try it yourself to see if the width of the fretboard is appropriate, whether the strings are too high, these are all factors that affect the feel.

Then you have to try to play, play all the sounds, and listen to whether there is any noise and whether there is a phenomenon of "hitting".

It is also necessary to see if the timbre is beautiful and whether the volume is loud enough, and there are many pianos that are made of good materials, but do not provide good sound quality due to the production technology. So listen to the sound quality of the piano.

Then there is the workmanship, to see if there are any flaws on the body, and there are some decorative details, such as color edging, sound hole pattern, of course, the decorative details are not very important, many master pianos are quite plain.

So the standard of a good guitar is that it has a good tone, a good feel, and of course, a good price-performance ratio.

As for getting started with guitar, I think the most important thing is good teacher guidance and perseverance.

Generally, the level of teachers in the small piano shop is uneven, and the basic skills are generally very poor, especially the foundation of music theory, of course, it is enough to teach you to play and sing a song. If you want to study deeply, it is best to find an experienced teacher with good basic skills. Of course, you also need to persevere, and it is impossible to play well without practice.

Get started with music theory, the scales of each key, then grasp the chords, practice the breakdown, rhythm, and then you can play and sing.

How to choose a guitar: If you don't know anything about guitar right now, don't think about the tone or anything like that.

If you want to buy generally, you can use a domestic piano for 500 yuan.

As long as you feel comfortable, it is a good instrument, don't pay too much attention to the price, the guitar will not sound good with copper plates.
