Learn guitar the quickest and laziest way possible, using all the shortcuts known to Rock and Roll. From simple power chords and custom tuning to hiding behind distortion – learn all the tricks to play guitar the easiest way possible, with the least amount of effort. Whether you want to play beginner rock, pop, punk, or be some kind of a heavy metal djent Viking... within a few hours you should be able to fool people into thinking you know how to play, and within a week you should be able to jam with your average meat-and-potatoes rock band. Just don't tell your guitar tutor.
Along the way you will learn:
- Power chords – The standard tool of rock is much simpler than you think it will be!
- Navigation – Tricks for learning the fretboard, with reference points to make guitars less scary.
- Learn some tricks – Spice up your playing and impress your friends with tricks like hammer-ons, pull-offs, slides, palm muting, string bending, and whammy bars.
- Adding effects – Make your playing sound fancier and hide your flaws with FX! Hide your teenage suckiness behind distortion, crank things up with some overdrive, sound fancy with reverb, sound sexy with some wah wah, sound bigger with some chorus, sound busier with delay, and whether or not you should buy a compressor.
- Different tunings – Learn how to tune your guitar, find out why people use different tunings, and how you can cheat with them. From Drop-D to Drop-C and lower, and from down tuning to open tuning, find out what will make your playing easier, and what will make it sound heavier!
- Weird guitars – 7-string, 8-string, 12-string guitars and beyond, for both acoustic and electric guitars. Find out why people use them (it's not just for Djent!).
- Riff challenges – Some tasty riffs to get under your belt, chosen for both standard tuning and Drop-D.
