Hey Steemers,

In my last post entitled 'The First Steemit Guitar Lesson' I'd written up a guitar tab that looked like this

E-------------------0-----------------------

B-------------------0-----------------------

G-------------------0-----------------------

D------------0--0- 2--2--0--0------------

A------3-3---------2---------------3--3---

E--1-1--------------0----------------------

I'd also written up a bit about guitar frets, chords, techniques and how to hold your guitar pick. A guitar can be a weird thing to pick up without a teacher being there to show you face-to-face from the get go, so I've recorded the following video to help you through the first tutorial and to introduce you to some new chords and techniques. The chords I show in this video in order are Eminor, E, G, C, A, Aminor, D and Dminor. I've posted these in tab form (refer to my last post 'The First Steemit Guitar Lesson' if you don't know how to read tabs yet) underneath this video to further help you understand exactly what I'm doing.

Don't really have a great camera but it's bearable. Enjoy :)

The chords I've played in the video are listed below:

E----0---------0-------3-------0------

B----0---------0-------3-------1-------

G----0---------1-------0-------0-------

D----2---------2-------0-------2-------

A----2---------2-------2-------3-------

E----0---------0-------3---------------

Em E G C

E----0---------0------2--------1------

B----2---------1-------3-------3------

G----2---------2------2-------2-------

D----2---------2------0-------0------

A----0---------0----------------------

E--------------------------------------

A Am D Dm

Remember to keep your fingers out of the way of the other strings when playing. Note '0' means to play the string open. When the line is blank ( - ) avoid playing that string.

If you've had any trouble with the lesson please drop your questions down in the comments and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

Stay tuned for the next blog & video where I will teach you about Bar Chords and Alternative Picking! :)
