How is the music theory same as playing guitar and the piano?

Q. I am trying to learn to play the guitar and I don't where to start. My friend told me it is like playing the piano, but I never played the piano before... HELPPPPP

A. You're asking 2 different questions.

Is the theory of music the same as far as chord progression, chord structure, notes in a scale, etc? Yes it is.

Is guitar like piano? No. You won't learn it the same way. Guitar is built around chord shapes, and piano is built around certain notes. This is why almost all piano players use sheet music, and guitarists don't like sheet music.

Anyway, enough of all of that. You certainly don't need to play piano to play guitar, so don't worry about comparing the two. You need a step by step instructional method that will guide you through what you need to know to eventually play in every key that exists.

Original Question

how long did it take you to fully learn piano music notes?
Q. im 17 and just starting teaching myself how to play piano by guides on the internet, i used to have lessons when i was young but quit because they were expensive. I remember the basics and learnt a few other things about notes on these guides and i think i could learn them all fully in a month. I was just wondering how long did it take you to fully learn piano notes and know which note is where on the piano and stuff. thanks for answering!

A. it took me about a year. however, i was already able to read music for guitar, cello, bass guitar, string bass (believe it or not those two are actually different just because of where you place your hands, the notes are technically the same but you tend to play them in different places), and voice. if you keep at it, you could probably get it in 6 months or so, but a year would be a good bet if you practice alot. this is to be fluent, technically i knew which note was which after like 2 weeks, but i wouldn't be able to look at a simple piece and just play it. i would need to think about it, try a few times, and practice. chord charts are great, so you can just follow chord changes, but i really respect what youre doing. i didnt start piano till i was 16 and i regretted not starting earlier, so it takes massive cajones for anyone to start this late, and props to you boy. or girl. i actually teach keyboard lessons now (rock and pop music only, little bit of hip hop, obviously i cant teach classical on piano if ive only been playing 2 years), so email me for any questions
