Guitar questions, answered
Do I need to read music to learn guitar?
No. Most guitarists learn from chord charts and tablature rather than standard notation, and Learnr teaches you to read both.
How long until I can play a song on guitar?
Many beginners play a simple song using a few open chords within their first couple of weeks of regular practice.
