First real six string

I got my first real six string !!!  
Guitar Classes started today for me

Guitar as I thought, was not easy at all. I started learning what are the parts of the guitar 

HeadStock, Tuning Pegs, Nut, Neck, Inlay, Fretboard, Strings, Top, Soundhole, Pickguard, Bridge, Body

As I began to learn there are 7 Alphabest

A B C D E F G

B & E do not have sharps.


There are 12 Main Musical Notes played all over the World
A A# B C C# D D# E F F# G G#

Pronounced as 

A A sharp B 
C C  sharp D
D sharp E
F F sharp 
G G sharp

Every guitarist should know these 12 Notes by heart at a Good flow, because everything or anything you play in music, relates to these 12 notes.

A scale refers to the combination of 7 notes among  12 Notes. In details, Scale is a group of Musical Notes collected in ascending & descending order that provides material for or is used to conveniently represent a part or all of Musical work including Melody & Harmony.

The distance between two successive Notes in a Scale is called a Scale Step. Any type of music or sound would be within these 24 scales


12 Major Scales 

A A# B C C# D D# E F F# G G#

12 Minor Scales 

Am A#m Bm Cm C#m Dm D#m Em Fm F#m Gm G#m


Strings numbers from the bottom 


1     2     3     4     5      6

As we started, the class began with a couple of good songs to break the ice.
