Practice Helps You Learn Guitar By Ear
Practice Helps You Learn Guitar By Ear
For most of us, learning an instrument requires an enormous amount of
dedication - understanding fundamental principles and techniques
before embarking upon long practices. Practicing long hours will
finally reward the student with a working knowledge of the instrument.
And, if they are lucky, after many years of hard work they may even
become quite a masterful player. The guitar, especially, is held up as
one of the more popular instruments to which people dedicate
themselves. With images of musical grandeur in their heads they apply
themselves night and day to the practice of guitar in the hopes of
someday becoming proficient. But there are a rare few of us who can
actually learn guitar by ear, an inherent skill that graces only the
lucky among us.
Ultimately, you never know until you try if you can learn guitar by
ear. If you are interested in taking up guitar and have a few chosen
songs that you would really like to learn to play, try it out. If you
play the song on a CD, those who can play guitar by ear can mimic the
notes they hear on their own instruments. For those who have a working
knowledge of the guitar - the ways in which to hold it and the tone
that each vibrating chord makes the possibility to learn guitar by ear
is far more probable. Until you really understand the sounds that each
chord is capable of making, it will be difficult to replicate the
sounds you hear in your music on the strings of your guitar....

With a convoluted explanation like this, you're going to chase people
away more than attract them.
It hurt my brain to read it -- and I teach!
