Took up playing guitar several months ago, and I've been trying to learn a lot of new songs. Any suggestions for fun songs to learn and play?
I listen to a lot of different genres so I'll adapt to most of what you give me.
Some songs I've been learning to kinda gauge my skill: Kansas- Carry On My Wayward Son Boston- More Than a Feeling The Hotelier- An Introduction To The Album Avenged Sevenfold- Unholy Confessions Suicidal Tendencies- Institutionalized(I can do the first solo slowly without fucking it up too bad) Megadeth- Hangar 18(Can do first solo, all the soloes past that are beyond me) Nujabes- Aurarian Dance
get rocksmith play paint it black or love thats gone both are pretty fun to play tbh for a shit guitar player i reccomend love thats gone
Austin Richardson
Rude Mood by Stevie Ray Vaughan
Jose King
Hey dude, any guitars you can recommend with rocksmith? I'm still using the epiphone that originally came with the game, and I'm having a hard time bending strings, and the cords seems to have too much travel (ie: too far away from the frets, not sure if this is the right term for it).
Kayden Gray
Hey Hey What Can I Do -Led Zeppelin
Joseph Young
Here are my guitars. Hardly play the epiphone. Thinking of selling it to save for a better one.
Levi Kelly
damn, I was actually just the other day listening to Paint It Black and thinking I should look up the tab. Thanks man! thanks! I'm writing these down. That reminds me I wanna see what I can do with Pride And Joy as well
Nothing Else Matters by Metallica. It's their "ballad" so it's not hard until you get to the solo which isn't even hard.
Matthew Gomez
Killing Floor
Hudson Jones
honestly surprised I've never learned a metallica song. I'll check it out, thanks
Aaron Taylor
To engage your skills I'd work with more hard rock/metal songs with heavy riffs and complex styles like: Disturbed-Striken Breaking Point-Falling down (or under) Pearl Jam-Jeremy Metallica-For whom the hell tolls And other song like those
Aiden Ward
I'm currently learning the intro to Yellow Ledbetter. It's a little strange but I have the first part down. I'll look at your suggestions. I actually looked up stricken a month ago and was terrified by it so I didn't pursue it but I've come a long way since then so it might be time for another shot
Carter White
Beginner/Intermediate guitarist here as well. Anyone have any tips for right hand improvement? I know quite a few chords, playing them and hitting individual notes with my left hand is a piece of cake but anything other than basic strumming patterns with my right hand and I derp out really hard. I'm trying to get into playing metal riffs, but alternate picking styles and picking back and forth between different strings just is not working for me. no matter how much I practice it just feels like my right hand is forever cursed.
Camden Murphy
Live and learn by crush 40
Connor Carter
Welcome Home or In Keeping Secrets by Coheed and Cambria
Ryan Lee
Xanadu by Rush or Over the Hills and Far Away by Led Zeppelin
Also, when you want to play a mew song try learning by ear instead of using tabs or chord charts, it takes more time but if you practice everyday you'll get better much sooner.
Adrian Moore
Complex and Metallica? Your kidding right?
Thomas Morales
Try learning some Slash..hes a good string skipper...will really improve your timing and accuracy.....also some George Lynch...guys a beast with all his alternate picking techniques...
Zachary Wood
Op here, already can do the beginning riff to Welcome Home but haven't gone any further. I'll look into it I've been able to pick out some chords and lace them together to songs I know, but haven't been able to draw together a whole riff by ear or anything. I know I have the ability, because I have a good ear and listen to a ton of music, but I need to dedicate more time to trying that
Mason Martinez
Tumbling Dice - Stones South Bound Suarez - Zeppelin 2112 (the whole thing - Rush What's Next To The Moon - AC/DC Mean Streets - Van Halen
Isaac Butler
METAL kYS
Cameron Lee
Ill buy your Epiphone. How much?
Gabriel Harris
The Suffering is good too. Also make sure you try Stairway To Heaven by Zep. Every guitarist should know that song.
Christian Lopez
Trust me when I say that practicing everyday for atleast 30min will make you a great player in a year or two. If you really enjoy playing the guitar 30min will feel like nothing. Another thing that helps is just making up your own songs and playing whatever instead of something someone else has written. In a year or two you should be able to learn whole songs just by listening to it while trying to play along.
For bends get a lower string guage or get super slinkies or something. Get a yamaha pacifica or a squire if you want a easier bridge scale, but i dont know too much about those.
And make sure you diddle around qnd play alot even if you don't do scales. Get to know the instrument and what sounds right.
John Rodriguez
This guy literally walks you through hundreds of classic rock songs on guitar. And, he actually plays them right. Take it from an oldfag who has been playing for 30 years. These are all the songs you'll ever need.
Don't fear the reaper / blue oyster cult. laid to rest / lamb of god say goodbye / i killed the prom queen ( if you use guitar pro just bring the tuning up to d.
columbian necktie / prom queen
carrion / parkway drive.
Cooper Sullivan
Why do people on Sup Forums degrade themselves so much? It's a place to talk to people, and I'm sure there are many great guitarists on Sup Forums.
Grayson Green
all easy songs to learn.
Luis Wright
Beauty. Here's mine.
Christopher Anderson
Ive learned to play Hotel California and it was alot of fun, I'd suggest it.
Lincoln Campbell
Such a beauty user.
William King
Nice bass man.
Asher Clark
Would have a beer with you bro. Only play laid to rest though.
Guys. Take this over to Sup Forums /gg/ guitar general. They will tell you everything you need to know about this stuff. Don't crowd Sup Forums with guitar stuff.
I played for several years, but I got busy and haven't picked up a guitar in at least a year My favourite when I played though was Sultans of Swing, I love Dire Straits
And OP And Justice for all is a fun ass song to play
Landon Brown
what do you even play anyways
Xavier Cook
Si. I don't have a picture of mine, but it's the same as the pic
Ethan Young

Cooper Cook
My fucking eyes! Why is it so bright user!!!!!!! Cool guitar.
Jaxson Anderson

Brayden Lopez
Beautiful
Ian Hernandez
Yeah it was one of those "Guitar of the month" things when they were doing those wanted to spend that much Don't remember the exact price, but it was expensive as fuck. Haven't played in a long while though, got too busy with school and work and got into shooting, spend all my money on guns and ammo now
Bentley Morgan
you think so? It was a DIY project I did a couple of weeks ago to my rg450m
Austin Jackson
Gah fucked that up, obviously
Colton Carter
It's a pevey but it's American made and plays fucking nice
Chase Nelson
you ought to consider putting a paper towel and some cleaning fluid to that pickguard
