Help me start out with acoustic guitar

[shirin]

My regards to the community. I already have a taste of music as I played Saxophone for 6 years and sang in choir for 5. I want to have my fingers going on an acoustic guitar. I already own 2. . I was wondering if anyone could tell me a good way to start out. What should I be doing, etc... That kind of stuff. Any advice would be great.

Thanks

If you want to learn acoustic guitar (http://www.hotstrings.net/order.php?cat_id=2) I think that the best going would be to get an online source.

This is our new fast-track beginner course without notes. In 30 daily lessons you’ll learn the most important chords to accompany various styles. You’ll learn the different styles such as easy ballad, folkpop ballad, groove pop, pop ballad, and more, by playing together with the band. Direct downloadable to your pc.

Hi shirin. Do you already know anything about guitar or is your request specifically directed at acoustic guitar? Anyway, a good start would be to learn the basic chord shapes in open positions, that'll be quite a few chords you can play a lot of different songs with. Next step is get your right hand going with different rhythm or picking patterns. As you already have experience with music you should be on your way pretty soon. Good luck!:)
