If you are in the early stages of learning, start by understanding how the guitar works and the basics of scales and chords. You could use Ben's beginner course. Then you can jump straight into the playing - with Gab's Lead basics course.If you are not quite into courses...

Here is a tip
The students that learn fastest, use the REC functionality to post on the REC board. A minimum of three instructors will then grade your performance and provide you with constructive feedback. So if you are serious about learning fast, give yourself a deadline to submit your take for REC grading. I can promise you this will give you the sense of direction you need, and motivation to practice! (REC requires you to sign up for GMC)Go the extra mile
