In today's tutorial we cover your very first guitar lesson as well as what books don't mention. We start at the absolute beginning assuming you've never played or even touched a guitar before. However, this lesson also discusses how to practice and learn on your own and can be a great lesson for any level since it's always good to rehash over the basics and get some good inspiration and motivation in your own practice.
