Hi. I am a new member to Guitar Tricks and I really would like to learn the guitar. I have a New Year Resolution to learn the guitar and master it. But also my mom and I have a deal, If I learn the guitar before my 18th birthday, she'll buy me a new guitar. I hope you people here at Guitar Tricks can help me make my goal, I would gladly appreciate it. Thank you.

Welcome! I'm sure if you are consistent in your practice and don't try to become better too fast, you will do very well. My advice would be to establish a practice schedule that you can stick to, and then make sure you stick to it.

I hope you get that new guitar!

In some good ways Moms don't change all that much. My own said she'd pay for my lessons as long as I kept practicing. Wow...the good ol' days! My half-hour lessons cost a whopping $1.50 each.

Welcome to GT, Brittany. If you want to learn guitar this be a good place! :)

Hi Brittany,

I'm sure you can do it - and you've come to the right place!

Here's a beginner's tutorial that will teach you how to play your first song using just one chord! (and then it progresses from there)

Might be fun to give it a try:

Welcome to GuitarTricks!

Best wishes, Lisa
