Guitar

I have a balck Fender CD-60 acustic guitar, like this

I always loved music. After eight years of playing the piano, when i got a guitar from my parents for Christmas, I decided to learn how to play the guitar, but this time I tried to learn myself without a teacher. I bought a special teaching book which explains everything about guitars and about playing, focused on those who are learning themselves, like me. I started with some simple Hungarian child songs. It was quite different from the piano, and took a few days to get used to the guitar. After the simple songs I learned some chords (E minor and A minor) and some easy songs based on these chords such us the Hungarian “Megfogtam egy szúnyogot”.  The next step was to learn the chords E major and A major. There chords are quite similar, for example E minor and major has just one string difference. Finally I learned the chord D major, and with these chords I could play the chorus of the popular song “The Lion Sleeps Tonight”. This week I practiced two new chords, similar to A and E major, but with a dominant sounding. I plan to learn some more chords, learn new songs ó and of course develope my playing skills as well.
