How long should you practice? That is a common question between beginner on their first acoustic guitar lesson.
In my opinion the answer is very personal and it all depends and what you want to achieve with your playing. Guitar can be a very easy instrument to learn but an extremely difficult one to ”Master”.
It you want to became a professional 8 hours x day forever are a good start and this article is probably not of interest for you.
If you want to play for fun and you are about to start learning then I have some good advice on how to do it in just 48 hours. I can understand that many of you will not believe me but keep on reading to find out how I do it. To learn to play guitar well enough to jam with your friends and have a good time singing any song you like you need a total of 48 hours of practice. The way to do it is to set aside for 4 months and practice 30 minute 6 days a week. You obviously need to practice solid exercises and not just goof around, I think that is quite easy to understand.
You’ll be able to play a load of easy guitar songs, learned loads of chords and strumming patters along with some basic theory and a bunch of other good stuff.
A little bit every day is way better that a lot every now and then. That’s how we learn just about anything really, by repeating the same exercises everyday till we get them right, and in the long run developing muscle memory. Eventually all the chords & rhythms will became second nature.
Don’t let the simplicity of this tip fool you, it works!
