I've been really interested in the guitar lately, and my brother found some of his old beginners books that teaches you how to play basic chords and such. He told me that it would probably take about a month to learn the chord. Is this true? I expected much longer than that.

The rate that you pick up any instrument is very dependent upon the person. For some people, this can be almost instantaneous. For others, it may take a long time. If you work at it and practice, depending on your memory, you could learn guitar very quickly. Aside from learning chords, if you take the time to really learn the guitar and learn the notes in different positions and frets, you will have a very solid base. This will help you if you know how to compose chords. It will also help on your soloing and picking. Good Luck!! :) [ broadwaybabe629's advice column | Ask broadwaybabe629 A Question ]

giant_lizard answered Sunday March 5 2006, 2:57 am: Learning the more basic chords is pretty easy, it's learning how to switch between them, and learning how to play the right sounds that takes a lot of time. In a couple days, you could learn most of the more common chords used in most popular songs. But, yeah, Chords are pretty easy, I suck at guitar, not because I don't know chords, I just don't know how to weave them together very well.
