Is it possible to teach myself guitar and piano?
Q. I really want to play Guitar. Like Acoustic then other types. How hard is it to self-teach yourself the Guitar? Please answer if you're self-taught. I would like it very much if I could be in a band when I get to college, maybe. It would be nice to be able to write songs with a band.
By the time I'm well into college I would like to have mastered Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar, Bass Guitar, Piano, and maybe the Drums. In that order. It would be brilliant to be able to do that, like have a hidden gift. I would like to self teach them ALL to myself. LESSONS ARE NOT AN OPTION. I know that I won't be able to master music theory, but I don't even know what that is. Plus lessons are not an option for me.
I'm a 14 year old girl which is kind of weird, me wanting to be in a band and all.
My favorite band is Coldplay, they've really inspired me to learn guitar and piano even more.
One additional question... if Electric Guitar and Acoustic Guitar are basically the same thing, why do they sound so darn different?
Also, if I learn Acoustic Guitar, and then Electric, will I have to teach myself anything new, or is it that I just master Acoustic and I'm all set for Electric and Bass?
I've played the Trumpet before, and know how to read the music for it. But Piano and Guitar sheet music is like a foreign language to me. All the chords are hard. So will my knowledge of the Trumpet help me at all? I don't think so.
I love working for things so that's why I want to be self-taught.
So if there is anyone who self-taught themselves one or more of these instruments, I'd like to hear from you.
Do you guys think I can successfully pull it off? Yes or No?
-Thanks
A. Give it a go!!! I kind of self taught myself piano and guitar but I didn't focus much on it and persist so I never got really good at it. I still play from time to time and I can read a moderate amount of music and tabs(for Guitar). If you keep at it everyday for at least an hour you should become pretty proficient within a month. Just make sure to start of slow pick up some books from music stores or Google search sheet music and guitar tabs. A lot of it will also be how talented you are, maybe you could use how easy or hard trumpet playing was for you. There will be alot of similarities between piano and guitar because of the way its all at your fingers so you can see patters and similarities. Difference between acoustic and electric is the way they are engineered. Acoustic is made to be moderately loud without an amp and its hollow core gives it that resonant sound. Electric is almost entirely based on having an amp, it gives it the distorted or jazzy sound, depending on the amps settings. Bass is rather different because its concentrated on very low octaves and has a different arrangement in strings. If you become rather proficient in any type of guitar, bass shouldn't be hard to learn but it will be slightly different especially for its usage. Its usually for background and stability in an ensemble, much like a Tuba, or Double bass, but depending on the genre it can also be super funky and powerful. About liking Coldplay.......please expand your assortment of artist to help see the full potential of the various instruments you wish to play. Its not exactly so that you'll learn there music, but to expand your ears and know the various sounds possible, which I think will be essential if you want to be in a band Here are some possible suggestions of artist/songs:
Acoustic Guitar 1.Rodrigo y Gabriela- Juan Loco, Satori and various others
2. Gypsy Kings- Djobi Djoba, Moorea
3. Oasis- Wonderwall
Electric Guitar: (Harsher) Nirvana, Iron Maiden, System of A Down
(Experimental) Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Radiohead
(Old School) The Ventures, The Zombies
(Indie)(Modern-er) Two Door Cinema Club, The Black Keys, Red Hot Chili Peppers
Just try learning steadily and accomplish something every day
Hope some of this helps in some way :)
