Picks Notes are producedon the guitar by pickingthe stringswith a pick (sometimes calleda plectrum).Pickscome in severalsizes,the thinnestbeing around0.50mm going up to the thickestaround2 or 3mm.The best pick sizefor you is all down to personalpreference,but I suggestyou startwith one around.ó0 or .70mm. Once you have a few weeks' playing under your belt, buy severaldifferent sizes and see whichsuitsyou best.
F i g .1 P i c k
The pick is held in the right hand betweenthe thumb and indexfinger.lt shouldbe held at right anglesto the thumb, with just the point showing(Fig.2).
Fig.2
RightHandTechnique In order to pick the stringsaccurately,steadyyour hand by restingthe under part of your wrist on the bridge of the guitar(Fig.3). Takácarethat your handdoes not come into contactwith the strings.
Fig.3 The circleshowsthe right hand restingon the bridge' your To giveyou an ideaof the pickingactionrequired,get your handin the positionshownin Fig.3. Now rest 'trt This 5). string_(Fig. the pick through string(Fig.a) anJwith a downwardmotionfrom the wrist, picf onih" (8mm). Please movementshoulduá lusi enoughto movethe pick pastthe string,approximately1/4 of an inch note that it'svery importantthat the movementcomesfrom the wrist,not the elbow.

Left hand techniqueis very important,and accuracyis essentialif you are to get the best from your guitar.This is the first areato checkif things don't sound right.When pressingthe stringl, placeyour finglrtips alongside the fret (Fig.7).Usejust enoughpressureto get a good cleannote.You'llneà to keej your fiigernailsshortso that your fingertipsmake good contactwith the fingerboard.You may experiencerorná pain iÀ your fingertips at first,but this will soon disappearas the skin becomeshard. All the music in this book is played on the first three frets, and in every case all notes on the 1st fret are playedwith the 1st finger,on the 2nd fret with the 2nd finger,and on the 3rd fret with the 3rd finger.This appliesacrossall six strings.I liketo callthis correctfingering(Figs.8, 9, 1O).Note from the diagramsthat the handstaysin the sameposition;onlythe fingersmove.Also notethat the fingersnot being useástayas close as possibleto their respectivefrets readyfor the next note. Make sure,too, that you g"iyorr thumb in the correctposition,roughlyoppositethe middlefinger.Studythe diagramscarefullyto make sure you get all these points right from the start.

Tuning The Electronic Tuner properlv isessential. Plavins asuitar that's even stishtty outoftunecanruineveryrhi iïIt"ilï::: LïJ,i:l
In order for you to play along with the cD in this book, your guitar needsto be tuned to concert pitch. ïhis can be done in several but I stronglyrecommendthat you use an electronic -i"tt, tuner, as this will ensurethat your guitaris perfecilytuned.
They normallycost from aroundflo and you can buy them from all good guitarstores.Ask the salesmanfor a demo when you buy your tuner - it's reálly oí." fo, kno* n"*. rnËr" are other waysto tune up and two of them are shownbelow,but you may ""ry need to developyour 'ear' b;à; you can use them effectivery.

UnderstandinlfTablafure Tablatureor TAB as it is better known,is a very simpleand effectiveway of writing down guitar music,and it's very easyto learn.lt consistsof six horizontallines,that representthe six stringsof the guitar as shown here.

Noie Values You now know that when reading TAB the six lines representthe six strings and the numbers tell you which fret to press. Next you need to learn how to read the time value or length of each note. In the diagrams below two of the notes have stems or tails, and one has none. lt is the shape or absence of this stem that tells you how long the note must last. The notes shown here are the Ouarter note which is 1 beat long, the Half note which is 2 beats long, and the Whole note which is 4 beats long. Study the diagrams and memorise the shape and value of each note.

AlternatePicking
When playing eighth notes it's good to use alternatepicking. This means using downward picking ( n see note below) on notes that land on beats 1 2 3 or 4, and upward picking ( V see note below) on notes that land on '&' the beats. Study exercise4 whilst listeningto the CD and then play through it slowly, counting the beats asyou go. Note: ll = downward pick and V : upward pick
