Where should I really start?

Theres so many videos on this site, that I really don't know where to start...I would consider myself a beginner guitarist, I know some chords like, a,amin,eminor,e,c,d,f,g, I know that power chords are played with 3 fingers, but can be played with two, So i know how to play power chords, I say I pick up things pretty quickly too...I have a hard time understanding basic scales and such, I know what palm muting, alternate picking, and a lot of basic stuff on guitar, I feel as though im not improving sadly, I'll never quit guitar but I really want to get better and eventually form a band or join a band. I love rock, metal blues, and anything in between. I'm just not EXACTLY sure on where to start on my level. I have a epiphone junior model with a line 6 amp. If Someone could point me in the right direction as to what I should do that would be very helpful. I'm positive there are hundreds of videos that could help me on this site. If there's anything else you would like to know about my experience then just ask me. I'd love to get going on this, And I want To actually understand what im playing and such so yea enough said. thanks.

You are correct!

I think you should start from the very beginning in the Core Learning System. A lot of the stuff in Guitar Fundamentals 1 will feel really really easy for you, but maybe you will pick up something new you didn't think about? You can just quickly click through the lessons and look at the titles to see if you might need to review that subject.

Guitar Fundamentals 2 will get you started with scales and intervals - this will be a good place for you.

After that, go through the Blues Style or the Rock Style - both are truly great!

These are all very structured courses, and when you realize you're interested in something outside of them, browse the site for the rest of the tutorials (like shred licks, songs, funk, Santana licks etc.).

Hey we could share our experiences on guitar tricks.

Since you've already paid for it with a subscription, I'd encourage you to get the most for your money and go through GF1 for a quick review.

Sure, you might already know how to do everything in there, but it will give the necessary foundation to understand everything that follows. And you might pick up a tip or two that will help improve your understanding or technique!

It probably won't take you long to go through it. :)
[QUOTE=Malvoc]I have a hard time understanding basic scales ...

As Ben said, go through GF2!

http://www.guitartricks.com/course.php?input=2

It starts with intervals and then builds on it with scales, chords and how they are all related. How you use them when you play anything on the guitar!

After that, I'd pick a course. Sounds like you'd be interested in rock and blues. Once you get into courses you will start to have more advanced questions. The instructors will mention other things to learn and expand upon. You can search for those things in the GT search tool.

And once you know something specific you want to work on you can always ask the instructors how to do it!

Let us know how it goes. Have fun!
