[QUOTE="Audiomatic, post: 52256093, member: 241558"] Newer Christian songs are relatively easy. Hymns were written for piano (or organ) and can have some unusual chords that would be difficult for a novice. I don't necessarily agree that a teacher would be helpful. In my opinion, the only way to learn how to play guitar is to play guitar. The easiest way to play guitar is to have a reason for doing so. Perhaps you know a nice worship leader who'll provide you the songs and allow you to sit in on practice (unplugged?) each week. You'll be astounded at your progress when you have to practice specific songs to play at a specific time, and you'll learn so much from the other instrumentalists. Barry's right: nail the rhythm first and the chords will catch up soon enough. If you try to nail the chords first, it'll take longer to get good at it. [/QUOTE]
