Learn How To Execute And Play Guitar Chords

One of the basic lessons in playing the guitar is to knowing how to execute every chord and play it. You will not be successful in learning to play the guitar if you do not know how to execute the chords properly. Before starting to learn how to execute chords, you should remember 2 things. First is to prepare a guitar chord diagram and second is to learn how to read the chords in a diagram.

After preparing your guitar chords diagram, you are ready to learn how to read it.

The guitar chord diagram will have different parts:

Vertical lines, horizontal lines, name of chord, dot marker, circle o markers, numbers and x markers.

The first step to learn guitar lesson is to know what the vertical and horizontal lines are. The vertical lines in the diagram are actually the strings of the guitar. You will notice that the vertical lines are 6 lines which correspond to the 6 strings. The horizontal lines are the frets. The frets are the embossed lines in the neck behind the strings. Whenever you place your finger on the strings, you will notice that there are embossed lines behind them. Those are the frets, AKA the horizontal lines in the diagram.

The diagram which shows the vertical lines and the horizontal lines is actually the neck of the guitar. The vertical and horizontal lines are the guide lines. The next thing you should know is what type of chord you are looking at. You will notice the name of the chord above the vertical and horizontal lines.

After knowing which chord you are playing, the next step is to know where to place your fingers. You will know this by following the dot markers drawn inside the vertical and horizontal lines. You will notice that every dot marker is always drawn in line with the horizontal lines. The reason behind this is that every finger you position on the neck should always touch a string to perfectly execute the chord. This is one of the steps to learn guitar lesson in way that you will make it easy for you to know the next steps.

In determining which finger to use, you will notice that in every dot marker there is a number below it which is in line with it as well. These numbers represent which finger to use in positioning your fingers on the dot marker.

The following is the representation of each number for your fingers:

Index Finger 1

Middle Finger 2

Ring Finger 3

Pinky 4

The last part to know in reading the diagram is to know the meaning of the x marker and the o marker. You will normally see these markers outside the vertical and horizontal lines. The dot marker inside the vertical and horizontal lines is different from the o marker outside the vertical and horizontal lines. The x marker means that you will not play that string. It means that in strumming, you will not strum the string where you can find an x marker. The o marker is the opposite of the x marker. In the o marker you will strum that string even though there is no finger positioned in that string.

After learning how to read the diagram, there is one last thing to remember before completing to learn guitar lessons. Remember that you will strum the strings that have an o marker and also the strings where your fingers are positioned.
