How do you play a solo over chords on guitar?

first determine what key the music is being played in... then find your self some scales... penatonic seems to be the easiest... then match up the penatonic to the key of the song... and make it up from there...

When I started to play the guitar it was really hard at first because i was new at it.  But about a year later I learned how to play chords and it got much easier.  Its easier and more fun when you get to make your own songs because its easier to memorize. You also have to be dedicated to playing the guitar, and have a good guitar teacher to make things fun.

I mostly taught myself with the Hal Leonard Guitar Method.  By the time I got through book two, I didn't really use the method books anymore because I could then play other music that I wanted to learn.  Now if I want to learn a new song, I can find chords for that song on the Internet and learn it that way.  If it happens to contain a chord or a section that I can't play, I can practice that and get better.\n\nOver the years, Internet users have figured out chords or close approximations thereof to thousands of songs.  Searching for them with google.com or tabcrawler.com should turn up some songs you want to play, after you get the basics from a good guitar method book or teacher.

Hi, when i learned i only took lessons for about a month and they were helpful mostly because i had homework and i felt like i had to do it. What i am trying to say is that if you have patience and really make yourself practice you will learn by yourself. Check this site; it is mainly for folk music but it has good lessons to start out. http://www.folkofthewood.com/page5301.htm\n\nThis other site is also good for lessons and you can even find a lot of tablatures. http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/lessons/for_beginners/\n\nThis other site is also good for lessons and here you can see the basic guitar chords. http://www.cyberfret.com/chords/beginning-7/index.php\n\nWhat type of music do you want to learn? Some styles are harder than others. For example. the first songs that i learned were Zombie by The Cranberries ( very easy) and Redemption Song ( Bob Marley).\n\nOh one more thing. Do a lot of practice exercises for both your right and left hand. Before you start learning songs, learn the basic chords.\n\nWell hope that this is helpful, If you have any questions let me know...jonny

first, of course, learn your chords and scales.\nthen practice, practice, and practice some more.\nfinally, just "feel" the notes - then they are yours:)

You can use a piano. Just play a note, and tune your guitar using the little twisting notches on the top. (twisting tighter makes it higher)

If you're gonna do it, do it right. take lessons, learn to read music. take your time and learn as much as you can.\nI'm a guitar player, but never learned to read music. I wish i would have done it differently.

As long as you play in the chord structure you can play whatever you want. Actually you don't even have to do that...there are no hard fast rules...its whatever you think sounds best.

You need to play the notes that coincide with the string of the same note and turn tuning peg till same note is played.  It's very hard to explain in writing about tuning and the different wave cycles that are heard between the two notes.  Best bet, purchase a guitar tuner...if it's not an acoustic, that is.  \n\nGo here for a small explanation.  \nhttp://www.guitarsite.com/tuning.htm#how\n\nthis will help if you do not know keyboard layout.\nhttp://www.doremifasoft.com/pikeystmap.html

First, decide what your goal is. Do you want to play leads? If so, learn to read music and do it the old fashioned way with music lessons. BUT, if you just want to learn chords, strumming, accompaniment type stuff, get a cheap guitar, a diagram of the basic chords and play along with simple tunes until you get the rhythm. The hardest part at first is learning the strumming patterns, but once you get that, you're cool. Find a friend to play with and as long as you have the chord progressions and know where to put your fingers, you're good to go. It's the easiest way to begin. After that, you can decide if you want to be Eddie Van Halen. ;-) Good luck!

Electric or acoustic?\nIf you don't know how to do it I suggest you take it to a music shop and get them to show you how. It's a lot easier to show someone than to just explain it. I figured out how to do it on my own--if you mess around with it a little you'll probably figure it out yourself.\nGood luck!
