Are there any good websites that teach you how to play the guitar for free

Question

i want to get an acoustic guitar but have never played a guitar before

Answer 1

There are tons of lessons on youtube also.

Answer 2

There are quite a few of them.  I'm linking you to one that I know of.  If you don't like that one just search for "free online guitar lessons for beginners". You can also search on youtube for beginning guitar lessons but you need high speed internet to stream the video.

It's fine to learn chords & songs this way but I would recommend learning technique from an experienced player in person.

Answer 3

If I were you I would get a dvd/book with your acoustic. Also make sure its in tablature form. Guitar tabs are the easiest way to read the notes. Hope this helps. Also if you need help let me know. I have been playing guitar for 11 years. I can show you some pointers and tricks of the trade.
