Some other beginner tip: pls tune your guitar every time you start to play

Instead of washing my hands and ruining the calluses, I just coat all my possessions in Cheetos dust

Remember that the thumb is a guide . Don’t press down on it so hard when you’re playing, especially when performing barre chords . Use the whole arm by pulling inward to apply enough pressure when fretting

My tip for any intermediate guitarist is to try and start learning songs by ear as soon as possible, it might be really difficult in the beginning but it’s about the most useful skill in music in general and really helps you later on with your phrasing in your solos! If you’re getting the hang of it learning new songs start to get really really easy!

Guitar zero to hero finally getting the recognition it deserves 🙌

I remember learning songs from guitarzero during the pandemic, best channel I've ever discovered.

YouTube needs more beginner videos like this. Too many simply talk about which frets to put the fingers of the left hand on. As a long time player relearning the basics, the tip about about the lighter touch is a good reminder.

One Tip: Do not only learn songs! Learn also music theory, if you want to be able to play songs by improving (and sound like a pro) or not always want watch tutorials for be able to play a song you like.

Doodle around on the whole board, took me 10 years

Buying too many guitars could be considered a mistake depending on who you ask. Not me though, buying that squire was not a bad finance decision.

If you press to hard it will also break your strings and wear down your frets faster, especially if they are nickle silver and you are pressing too hard on the low strings.

The calluses are something that you build but can be less painful if you have a good guitar. Ask and investigate the action on the guitar. That is the height between the string and the neck. If it takes a lot of effort to press the string to get a clean, clear sound, do not get that guitar. You should be able to make a nice clean, clear sound without trying to push your fingers through the neck.

biggest tip missing from here: please dry your hands after you wash them... when you go to play dont be getting the guitar wet, it hurts my soul and the guitar's

In contrast to the last one, over time, slowly start using your ear to figure out songs. Eventually, you'll build up the brain to figure songs out with hearing it a few times and some fiddiling. But certainly use both! As he said, free and easy, mine as well do it.
