The guitar is very popular at present, and many people like it very much now. It is easier to learn than the piano. Many people can learn by themselves, and the tone is unique. It is one of the easiest self-learning instruments.

There is a certain difference between an acoustic guitar and an electric guitar. They sound different, their timbres are different, and the way they practice is different, and the strings of an electric guitar are also softer than those of an acoustic guitar, so the skills used on electric guitars More convenient and more suitable for playing. Below, we expand to understand their differences.

1. Different ways of sound

The acoustic guitar is that the vibration wave of the string is transmitted to the guitar's own panel through the string code, and the sound is produced through the guitar resonance box. The electric guitar converts the vibration waves of the guitar strings into electromagnetic waves by cutting the magnetic lines of force through the pickup coil, and then transmits it to the power amplifier through the wire to make the sound from the speaker.

2. The difference in tone

The tone of the acoustic guitar can change the tone basically in the wood material and part of the workmanship. The tone of the electric guitar can be adjusted to a lot of tone using effects and speakers.

3. Different ways of practicing

Acoustic guitar is very convenient to practice, you can pick it up and play it. The electric guitar needs to be wired to the speaker to produce sound, but the electric guitar also has the advantage that the sound volume can be adjusted, and it can even be practiced with headphones, so the sound of the electric guitar without wiring is very small.

If you want to learn guitar from zero foundation, you should first come into contact with an acoustic guitar. Having a guitar with a comfortable handle can stimulate your enthusiasm and make you feel comfortable. So as a novice, what details should you pay attention to when learning guitar? Now let's learn this together.

1. Develop the correct posture for playing the guitar

For guitar learners, mastering the correct playing posture is the basis and prerequisite for progress. Many beginners develop a lot of wrong habits in the process of self-learning guitar, which eventually affects the hand speed of guitar playing. It is very difficult to correct it, so you must be very careful when playing the guitar.

2. The scale is the foundation

Start with scales first, be patient, seek stability and accuracy, not fast. Scale practice is a very long process, and it is also a daily warm-up exercise for every guitar player. Beginners should keep practicing every day, and they will have good results in about a month. Laying a good foundation will help you learn guitar in depth later.

3. Adjust the chord angle

Fingertip pain is normal for beginners, but severe pain in the muscles or wrists is often caused by wrong posture and hand shape. Don't try to hit the strings by force alone, try adjusting your hands and fingertips, try different angles or positions to grip the neck and press the strings, and let your wrists slack as much as possible.

4. Practice with the metronome

Be sure to use a metronome when practicing, as it helps you develop a sense of timing while improving your ability to play within the structure of a piece. There are many piano friends who often encounter the problem of rhythm when practicing the guitar.
