Reading Guitar Music

It is never too late or too early to learn how to read guitar music. Many guitarist start off by teaching themselves guitar music after studying a piece of music on the radio or on a CD. This is a great starting point and will allow you to understand different notes and cords and the 12th fret.



Basic Elements

On a guitar, the tab staff has 6 horizontal lines. Each one of these horizontal lines represents a string on the instrument. The line on the bottom of the staff is the lowest “E” string on the guitar. The next line up from the bottom line represents the “A” string and so on. These are the basic elements when you learn how to read guitar music.

Chords

When your guitar tab displays numbers stacked vertically in a series, this is an indication to play these notes at the same time. When the guitar tab displays numbers in a series gradually on an incline, this is indicating these notes should be played one at a time. These are the first things you should know when you learn how to read guitar music.

Rhythmic notation

Rhythmic notation is how the songs rhythm should be heard when played. When you first learn how to read guitar music you should try songs you can access on a CD or radio so you can hear the rhythm before you commence learning the chords. Hearing the rhythm will make learning much easier.

A Major chord

An A major chord is the first chord you will learn to play and the first chord you will see when you learn how to read guitar music. An A major chord contains only 3 different notes. No more then 3 notes are used in an A major chord and these can generally be repeated more then once.

Discipline

The key when you learn how to read guitar music is discipline. Learning good techniques and having an excellent teacher will ensure you get the most out of your lessons. Once you have learned the basics of guitar music, you will find it easier to progress onto advanced guitar music.

Writing guitar music

When you learn how to read guitar music it is important to watch how the music is written. Take notice of the use of the chords in different sections of the music and take note of how easy the chords flow. When you become more advanced and start to write your own guitar music, these techniques will help you.

Noki Nocs Savory House: Yummiest Halo-Halo in Town

They have the creamiest and yummiest (at least for me) halo-halo in town.







This place served authentic Filipino dishes. Really love their kare-kare also.


Down side is that it is a tight place and can only accommodate 30 or less people at a time...

El Nido: Indeed a PARADISE!

Last Holy Week, we were able to visit El Nido with the family (Ramilo side).

Was able to enjoy the place, despite being frustrated and worried about my camera being soaked with sea water.

We stayed at a camp where we paid 250/night (cheap place really) with aircon rooms, kitchen and private bath, 

First day we had the tour, rented the boat for 5,000.00 and we toured on 4 islands that day, Small Lagoon, Big Lagoon,  Secret Lagoon and the 7 Commandos. 

Will definitely go back to this place with my first born!



The next day, we went traveled almost an hour to reach this so virgin beach called Nacpan! The place was so relaxing to stay! You'll enjoy the nice view of the virgin beach, plus the friendly smiling faces of all the tourists, locals and international!

Long white beach, blue crystal clear waters. Photos as proof below!
