At What Age Should You Learn to Play Guitar?

Guitar legends make it look so easy but talent, skill, and perseverance are needed if you want to learn the guitar. When you first pick up a guitar you won’t even know how to hold the plectrum or how hard to press on the fretboard, but after a few lessons, you’ll understand enough to play some basic chords. As with everything, practice makes perfect so you’ll need to play as much as possible if you want to play for even the smallest audience. When you consider how much is required to go from zero to guitar hero, you might wish you’d started at an earlier age but at what age should you begin to learn the guitar?
Love of Music
There’s no definite age at which you should start learning the guitar. Ed Sheeran, for example, played his first gig when he was 11 years old. The British singer performed Layla for a school concert. He’s never revealed at what age he first picked up a guitar but he started singing in public from the age of four when he joined the church choir. As with Sheeran, a love of music has to be at your core before you pick up a guitar because this is not an easy instrument to master.
When Should You Learn?
The sooner you start to learn, the easier it will be to grasp but most kids need to be school age before they learn music. Children learn a lot in school but what helps them learn music is that they become used to adult-directed learning through school. They’ll also be used to practicing things over and over, and school also teaches a level of discipline needed to master a musical instrument. For this reason, children should be at least six years old before they turn to formal music lessons but parents can still encourage their kids to learn and love music.
Encouraging a Child’s Love of Music
Taking children to concerts is one way of encouraging their love of music. This will allow them to appreciate the art of making music and they’ll experience the sensations only live music can give them. The acoustics in a venue and the atmosphere created by the crowd will help spur on their love of song. Sharing music you personally love will help nurture the same feeling in your child. If your child is a preschooler, you can encourage them to become involved in music through singing. This will help them to understand rhythm and it has the added bonus of helping to develop their language skills.
First Lessons
When your child is ready to play guitar get them some lessons from a professional. The first lessons typical include basic introductory skills like how to hold the instrument and an understanding of how the guitar works. For example, unless you play the guitar you won’t realize that you don’t need to press the string down all the way to the wood on the neck. You only need to press it against the fret in front of your finger in order to play the chord you’re attempting.
Teaching Yourself to Play
If you decide to forgo formal lessons and instead teach yourself to play the guitar, you’ll need to use a combination of reference books and online videos to get the most out of your time. Even then, you’ll really need to play for someone who knows what to listen and look out for in order to master the guitar. As with anything you’re trying to learn, practice and you’ll improve with time. But how much time is needed?
There’s a school of thought that 10,000 hours are needed to master any activity. That’s something that writer Malcolm Gladwell brought to the mainstream in his book Outliers. He wasn’t specifically talking about learning an instrument but it’s a useful guide to the amount of time needed to master a musical instrument.

The Essential Guide to Mastering Basic Guitar Chords
Learning the basics of guitar chords is essential for any aspiring musician. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to brush up on your skills, mastering basic guitar chords can open up a world of possibilities. Here’s an essential guide to help you get started.
Understanding Chord Structure
The first step in mastering basic guitar chords is understanding chord structure. A chord is made up of two or more notes that are played together at the same time. The most common type of chord is a triad, which consists of three notes: the root note, the third, and the fifth. The root note is the note that gives the chord its name, while the third and fifth provide additional harmonic color. Understanding how chords are constructed will help you learn how to play them on your guitar.
Finding Chords on the Fretboard
Once you understand how chords are constructed, you’ll need to learn how to find them on your guitar’s fretboard. The fretboard is divided into six strings (E-A-D-G-B-E) and each string has a different number of frets (the metal bars that divide the strings). To find a chord, start by locating its root note on one of the strings and then use your fingers to form the other notes in the chord. It may take some practice but with time you’ll be able to quickly locate any chord on your fretboard.
Practicing Chords
Once you know how to find chords on your fretboard, it’s time to start practicing them. Start by playing simple open chords like E major and A major and then move onto more complex barre chords such as F major and B minor. As you practice, focus on playing each chord cleanly and accurately before moving onto the next one. With regular practice, you’ll soon be able to play any basic guitar chord with ease.
Mastering basic guitar chords can seem daunting at first but with patience and practice it can be done. By understanding chord structure, finding chords on your fretboard, and practicing regularly, you’ll be able to master basic guitar chords in no time.

Full Guitar Hero: World Tour set-list
All 86 launch tracks set in stone.
Activision has finally concreted the list of 86 songs to be available on the Guitar Hero: World Tour disc that launches in October. So hopefully they'll stop sending us 15 press releases a week. We hate Sting .
We love Sting really, and he's among those we knew about, although rather a lot of that leaked old track list turned out to be wide of the mark.
Bon Jovi will be there though with "Livin' On A Prayer", which we may or may not have on our iPod, as will Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger". That might also be on our playlist.
There's lots and lots to look through, including those exclusive tracks captured as a result of deals with the to-be-playable rock stars Jimi Hendrix, Ozzy Osbourne and more.

3. Guitar Hero: World Tour Story walkthrough
Before you start reading This page is ONLY for solo career or solo related achievements! Band career/related achievement are on the following pages! Before you start playing a song We will start off with the tutorials. Each instrument has a few small explanations, which will help you master the gameplay if you are new to the series. To start with those, select ' Quickplay ' from the main menu & then ' Training '. There, you can scroll down to select ' Tutorials '. After finishing each lesson, you'll get your first achievement.
You completed a tutorial

After the lessons are covered, we'll customize our very own rocker. Go to ' Rock Star Creator ' from the main menu to create a new rocker. First, we will create a female band member, so pick Female in the menu. Customize her until you think she's alright and save (saving needs to be done for the achievement to pop!). Another easy achievement unlocked.
You created a female band member

We will continue with creating another rocker, but this time, we will select a male one. We will do some additional things here, so keep your eyes on this guide while your creating your things. For your rocker himself, customize until you are happy. Now it's time to add a tattoo (& unlocking another achievement). Go to the ' Body '-menu & scroll down to ' Tattoos '. There you can select to put one on your torso, left- or right arm. Select edit & let your creativity roll. After saving your tattoo, another achievement is unlocked. Time to create your own instruments, shall we? We'll start with the guitar. Go to the ' Instruments '-menu, select ' Guitar ' & then ' Customize '. Edit everything you want to edit & save your guitar which will let the achievement pop. We will continue with the drums, in the ' Instruments '-menu, select ' Drums ' & ' Customize '. Again, edit everything you want and save it. New achievement unlocked.
You created a male band member

You created a custom tattoo

You created your own custom guitar

You created your own custom drums

To finish off everything for your band, the only thing left to do is to create your band and its logo. From the main menu, go to the ' Options '-menu & select ' Band Info '. Press the blue fret button (or you can press X if you are playing with a standard x360 controller) to edit your band logo. After you are done, save it to earn another achievement.
You created you own band logo

Alright, time for the real work. You already earned an easy 35G, but it's time for the more time consuming achievements.
Career Select ' Career ' from the main menu & then ' Single '. Choose ' Guitar ' (or any other instrument you prefer to play) & any difficulty you want to play on. In your first playthrough, you need to play every song possible (except for possible DLC's), to gain an extra achievement after you finished the career; so I really recommend starting your first playthrough on guitar. Complete your first song to unlock your first story related achievement.
You performed as a Guitarist

You completed a song solo

Complete the first gig, which contains 3 songs, to earn another achievement.
You completed a gig

Continue with the gigs. After you beated 7 or 8 setlists, you'll gain another achievement.
You completed the majority of the gigs. Just a few more to go.

If you get to San Francisco (AT&T Park), you'll get the opportunity to unlock another achievement. This venue has 6 songs (the Encore song is included) & two of them are songs by the famous Jimi Hendrix! This is the only character you don't need to buy (you'll need to buy a total of 8 characters) throughout the whole game & it will net you another achievement! Complete the song " The Wind Cries Many " to unlock this one! Note: This achievement will only unlock if you play as the vocalist or guitarist!
You rocked out as Jimi Hendrix

After playing the gig on Time Square in New York and beating the final encore, you will have finished your first career!
You completed a solo career

At the same time, based on what difficulty you played, you'll get the chance to get 4 more achievements. These achievements are stackable, so if you completed this career on Hard, you'll get the achievements for Easy & Medium as well.
You completed Career on easy. Have you tried medium yet?

You completed Career on medium. Have you tried hard yet?

You completed Career on hard. Have you tried expert yet?

You completed Career on expert

After your career, you'll need to buy the last 'secret' venue & try to 5-star each song on the set list to unlock another achievement.
You unlocked all of the guitars

Side notes:
- Bass, drum and vocal tour only require you to beat the gigs that don't need to be purchased. You don't even have to 5-star each song, passing the song is good enough. There are some score related achievements, for more info scroll down to the bottom of this guide.
- While going through the career, you'll get the chance to buy other characters; in this case Zack Wylde (after you beat the song " Stillborn " by Black Label Society), Ted Nugent (after you beat the song " Stranglehold " written by Ted Nugent himself) & Billy Corgan (after beating the song " Today " by the Smashing Pumpkins). Each of these characters cost a certain amount of money, but they are needed to unlock 8 other achievements. A quick hint: buy the rocker, play a song with him/her/it (I don't know the gender of Rockubot & Skeleton), let the achievement pop & exit to the dashboard. That way, you'll save your money to buy additional gigs.
You rocked out as Billy Corgan

You rocked out as Zakk Wylde

You rocked out as Ted Nugent

- If you play the career on bass, you will not unlock any additional characters. While going through the career on drums, you will eventually unlock Travis Barker. Complete the song " Dammit " by Blink-182, so you can buy him from the menu. Finish one song to unlock an achievement. After beating the Time Square-gig, Rockubot is available for purchase. Again, play one song with him to unlock an achievement.
You rocked out as Travis Barker

You rocked out as the Rockubot

- Last but not least, vocal career. If you don't want to sing any of the songs; there's an easy solution: the fan-trick! Set the difficulty to beginner and place your mic in front of something that produces enough sound to make the game register your "singing" (I used the speaker of my TV). Like in guitar- and drum career, you'll unlock some celebrities. The first one you encounter is Ozzy Osbourne. Buy and play one song with him. Next up is Hayley Williams. Beat " Misery Business " by Paramore to make her available. Buy her, play one song and achievement unlocked! The last character you need to buy is Skeleton. This one requires you to beat the Time Square-show. Play one show to earn your last 'buy character & play a song with it'-related achievement.
You rocked out as Ozzy Osbourne

You rocked out as Hayley Williams

You rocked out as the Skeleton

- After you completed one song on each instrument, you'll gain an achievement related to it (except for bass once again) and one to complete a song with each instrument.
You performed as a Drummer

You performed as a Vocalist

You performed as every instrument at least once

- After completing each tour on each possible achievement, you'll gain the achievement which is the second most time consuming achievement in this game. But the 150 gamepoints you get for it are pretty nice, aren't they?!
You completed all of the instrument careers

Score Related-achievements After you finished the guitar career, you'll unlock an additional gig (as said above). This gig contains the most difficult song of the game (on guitar): " Satch Boogie ". Like all other Guitar Hero-games, it comes with an achievement. You need to score 222,222 points (or higher) & this is only possible with 97% (or above) of the notes hit & with a good star power path on Hard or 94% (or above) of the notes hit & with a good star power path on Expert. I recommend practicing each section of the song & putting Hyperspeed on (as said in General Hints & Tips).
Good star power path (Hard): http://pathhero.codemann8.com/view.php?path=4135
Good star power path (Expert): http://pathhero.codemann8.com/view.php?path=91
You scored 222,222 or higher on the song Satch Boogie as the Lead guitarist

Let's get to the drum score-related achievement. You'll need to play " Assassin " by Muse, where you have to score 222,222 points at least. This is possible on Medium, but you need to get at least 99%, a great star power path and keep your multiplier to x8 the entire song, which means you can only miss a note at the beginning or the end of a song. Playing on Hard or Expert means you have a little more room for mistakes, but it DOES makes this song more difficult! Please note that the Rock Band-drumkit can be used as well. I didn't find any paths for the RB-drums, but I guess you can always try to use the same path as the gamers in the video use for the GH-drumkit.

Good star power path (Hard, GH drums) (video submitted by gugge2000gnorman on YouTube):
Good star power path (Expert, GH drums): http://pathhero.codemann8.com/view.php?path=357
You scored 222,222 or higher on the song Assassin as a Drummer

Last but not least: scoring 123,450 points on " Beat It "... on vocals! It's not as hard as it sounds like though! SIL3NCEikillyou submitted a very useful video on this website, which helped me and a few other gamers to obtain this achievement. Put the difficulty on Expert, set the vocal lag (in the menu ' Calibrate Lag ') to 0ms & turn the volumes down from everything EXCEPT for the mic & the vocals. Then, synchronise this video with your game & activate star power whenever it's possible! You don't even need to hum the freeform sections! All credits go to SIL3NCEikillyou off course!
You scored 123,450 or higher on the song Beat It as a Vocalist

I'm pretty happy there's not score related achievement for the song " B.Y.O.B " by System of A Down, since that's one hell of a ride!
Mop Up Just like in GH III: Legends of Rock, there's a GHTunes section at the main menu. Create a song (it can even be a song where you played one note), save it & upload it the GHTunes-server to unlock an achievement.
You uploaded a song to GHTunes

Another achievement that's possible to gain is where you have to download a 'few' songs from GHTunes, created by other gamers. A few songs are actually 3 songs. You don't even need to play those, just downloading them is enough.
You downloaded a few songs from GHTunes

Note: Apparently, these achievements is no longer obtainable. Activision is looking for a solution so by the time this guide is online, it could be that there is a solution. Let's hope for the best!
That's it for solo play! Let's continue with the band-related achievements!
Note: The " Bling, Bling "-achievement can be obtained while you're playing solo, but I recommend band play! Turn the page to read more!
