I guess i should start this post by wishing everybody a happy new year.
I love playing guitar, I am not very good at it but i do try. I did take lessons for about 6 months but found them very expensive and difficult to practise what was been taught between lessons due to other commitments.
I am now using Rocksmith 2014 on my PS3 to teach me how to play. This is not a perfect method by any means but it fits in with what I am able to do and it makes learning fun. I am sure many traditionalists would say you cant learn guitar like that but I beg to differ. Sure, your probably better off with professional tuition but this just isn't appropriate for everyone.
Rocksmith allows me to learn the basics of playing guitar. Its teaches everything from scales, chords, bends, slides, harmonics, how to improvise and jam with a band to learning well known songs and much more.
I have been learning "R U Mine" by the Arctic Monkeys for a couple of weeks now and though it is not perfect I think it is coming along nicely. Please excuse the sound quality, this was recorded through my phone and the sound quality from the television isn't fantastic.
