GUITAR I & II

Picture
Guitar I & II are courses at Elk River High School that are meant to offer a musicians opportunity to those who never played an instrument in school.   The course starts from the very basics and works to give the beginning guitarist a firm foundation with the acoustic 6 string.  Here you'll find links to outstanding resources, handouts and music that is tested on throughout out the quarter.  As the year progresses check back in to find recordings of material covered in class as well as special jam recordings for you to play along with.



What Students need to have for this class:

  1. An acoustic guitar
  2. A Pick - .60 millimeters is a good place to start
  3. A metronome/tuner - available from MainStreet Music or order one from Amazon or a similar site.
  4. A notebook and folder or a 3 ring binder with loose leaf sheets in it.
  5. A pencil


Optional items to have for class:
  1. A capo
  2. Extra picks
  3. Blank staff and tab paper - available for free from blanksheetmusic.net
  4. String winder
  5. Extra Strings

Great Guitarists Goals:
1.  Find a regular time to practice every day outside of class
2.  Use a metronome to keep and develop a strong sense of the pulse --->  http://metronomeonline.com
3.  Practice what you are not good at.  Nobody wants to hear you play stairway to heaven for the rest of your life.
4.  Once you learn something pass it on to the next future guitarist.  It's just a good thing to do.
5.  Tune your guitar.
