5 things I wish every guitar beginner knew

Aug 08, 2026

A lot of beginners start learning guitar by trying to play a bunch of different chords.

But that can quickly lead to frustration and feeling overwhelmed.

In my newest video, I share the 5 things I recommend every beginner learn first so they can build a strong foundation and actually enjoy playing guitar.

I’ll walk you through:

- How to hold the guitar correctly
- How to tune your guitar
- A simple riff that makes you feel like a guitarist
- An easy melody to start making music
- The easy chords that open the door to hundreds of songs

If you’re just starting out (or helping someone who is), I think this video will give you a much clearer path forward.

Watch it here.

Keep making music!
