Have ever bought a blow up guitar, and stood in front of a mirror pretending to be your guitar hero or played an air guitar along with your favourite CD. Have you ever thought I would like to learn electric guitar and play some of my favourite tunes? Well why not do it, I am not saying it is going to be easy to learn electric guitar, just think how it would feel to play your favourite tune to your friends, what about the special person in your life you could learn their favourite tune and impress them At first your fingers will feel as though they belong to someone else, they just wont do what you want them to, but don't give up practice chord changes slowly there's no need to rush and remember you are learning, if you find your fingers are hurting just press lightly on the strings, don't strum the guitar while doing this you will not get the right sound, be like the air guitarist and pretend to play the strings The way you choose to learn electric guitar comes down to how you learn best, as you know everyone learns in different ways. These days you can learn over the Internet there are hundreds of site to choose from, it's all done in the comfort of your own home and you can get started right away, the key to success is to stick with it don't give up at the first hurdle Why learn electric guitar why not learn acoustic guitar, it may or may not surprise you to know there is no difference in the chords for either type of guitar, you could actually learn on acoustic before you go on to learn electric guitar, once you have mastered your preferred type of guitar you might want to try different styles such as Blues, Rock or Jazz these can be fun to learn
