A Child's First Guitar

!±8± A Child's First Guitar

You've known for years that your child had an ear for music. The time has come to
begin music lessons and he says the guitar is his instrument of choice.
No reason for you to worry, there's no rule that says bad habits and guitar playing have to go
hand in hand! The guitar is a versatile instrument that he can enjoy playing for the
rest of his life.

WHAT KIND OF GUITAR WILL I NEED?

A common mistake I see parents make is buying a poorly made guitar so they will not have
wasted a large sum of money if their child decides the guitar is not the instrument for him.

To start a child out on a guitar that has poor tone and is difficult to play is practically
a roadmap for failure. Mastering the guitar is not a simple task. A child deserves some
reward when he does something right and this is something only a quality instrument can give.

Buy a guitar suitable for the age and size of the child. The neck and body must be the
right size the child's hands and arm length. For younger childer (10 and younger) three quarter
(3/4) size guitars are available.

ACOUSTIC OR ELECTRIC?

I'm sticking my neck out on this one, but for instant gratification you can't beat an
electric rig. In addition to a guitar, you will need to buy a small amplifier and this will
stop some parents in their tracks, but hear me out. A lesson or two will focus on setup of
the rig and what the knobs on the guitar and amp are for, but an electric is easier to play
and a kid can get a few good sounds out of the guitar much faster. You can always branch out
into acoustic later once the fingers get stronger and more conditioned.

NEW OR USED?

There's nothing wrong with buying a used guitar that's in good playing condition.
Guitars are not like cars; a good guitar having been handled with reasonable care improves
with age. Look at the guitars that the professionals play. Do those instruments look brand
new to you? Hardly

Cruise the pawnshops, Ebay and the classifieds for possibilities. Of course these avenues

have a huge "Buyer Beware" sign on the corner. No returns allowed. Do you have a friend
that plays guitar? If this is the case, I'm sure that he won't mind if you ask him to go by
the pawnshop or to the garage sale with you, play the guitar you found and give you an opinion.

Go to the guitar forums on the internet and see what the others have to say about the
instrument that you are considering. Expect to see contradicting opinions. But if a

large percentage of the posters say any given guitar is a piece of junk it would be a good
idea to look for another axe.

HOW DO I KNOW WHAT THE GUITAR'S WORTH?

Try checking on Ebay to see what guitars comparable to the one you are looking at have sold
for recently. It's hard to know if you are comparing apples to apples even when comparing
identical model numbers of identical brands but you can get a general idea. You can check

the Blue Book of Electric Guitars, Acoustic Guitars and the Blue Book of Amps for a value,

but again these figures are merely guidelines.

WHERE DO I GO FOR HELP?

While the advice that can be obtained at a local music store can be invaluable before
you take the suggestions made by the salesperson you should ask the following question:
Are you a guitar player? If the answer to your question is no, ask for a salesperson
that plays guitar to help you or go and get that guitar playing friend to help you choose.

That's one of the perks of playing guitar, the friendships you make along the way.

Play Creedence Songs On Guitar

!±8± Play Creedence Songs On Guitar

Anyone who has bought an "easy-play" guitar book and tried to
play a Creedence song on guitar will know the frustration and
disappointment as the sound of the first wrong chord echoes
across their practice room.

The problem is Creedence songs seem easy to play (that's why they
turn up in so many beginners guitar books), however like every
thing, there is a trick to getting something so simple to sound
like the recorded version.

John Fogerty is the lead guitarist and songwriter behind the
popular Creedence songs. John is a master of understatement on
guitar who understands that true technique is the ability to be
able to create a simple memorable musical phrase (guitarist's
often call these phrases riffs) that people can immediately
identify with a particular song. Guitarist's often call these
phrases riffs.

Within the first three seconds of any Creedence song you can tell
which song you are listening to. These guitar riff's are like
musical "number plates" that help the audience identify the song
... and they work!

Listen to the first five notes of "Down On The Corner", the riff
un mistakenly belongs to that song. Whereas a guitarist of lesser
caliber than John Fogerty could waffle on with dozens of notes
that would have little impact on the listener.

John is also the master of the basic three minute radio song.
Most Creedence songs range between three to four minutes in
duration which is ideal for radio airplay. Three minute songs
are the favorite length for radio stations as they allow for the
maximum number of advertisement slots per hour that can be sold
thereby creating the most revenue for the radio station and of
course the more radio friendly the song is the more likelihood of
the song getting played on air.

The first issue when playing Creedence songs on guitar is how to
get that Creedence sound. The chord progressions look simple, why
don't they sound like the record?

There's two main reasons why most guitarists don't get that
Creedence sound on their guitar: (a) Most Creedence songs in the
"easy play" style books are written in a different key than the
recorded version. (b) for certain songs John Fogerty uses a
guitar that is tuned differently than standard tuning.

Standard guitar tuning is:

6th string = E,

5th string = A,

4th string = D,

3rd string = G,

2nd string = B,

1st string = E

John Fogerty's guitar tuning for songs such as "I Heard It
Through The Grapevine", "Run Through The Jungle", "Midnight
Special" etc., is:

6th string = D,

5th string = G,

4th string = C,

3rd string = F,

2nd string = A,

1st string = D,

Basically it's your standard guitar tuning a whole step lower
(two frets), this creates a big, rich, dark guitar sound and also
makes the strings easier to bend because there is less tension on
the strings.

Another tip for playing Creedence songs on the guitar is to use
an effect called "tremolo", you can hear great example of what
the tremolo effect sounds like if you listen to the first chord
of midnight special.

Tremolo is an electronic effect that was standard on many
amplifiers built in the 70's amps such as the Fender Twin reverb
and Kustom amps had two controls in the tremolo section of the
amp.

One control was "depth", which was the amount of the effect you
could mix with your original sound. The other control was "rate"
which was used to control the speed or rate of repeats of the
effect per minute.

When you play Creedence songs on the guitar keep this in mind
some songs are standard tuning and other songs use the whole step
down tuning.
