Working Between the Frets: Tips on Finger Play
Working between the frets otherwise known as learning to play with correct fingering can be a complex task. The key to good guitar playing begins with fingering technique and is complimented by the opposing hand having the right strumming or fingerpicking style to go with your fingering. Until your fingers are able to maneuver the fretboard fairly well, it is really going to take some time to make anything that sounds like music.
For the most part beginners should concentrate on learning to do two things on the fretboard, learn to play chords and learn to play scales. Chording will stretch out the fingers and widen the area that they are able to cover effectively. Scales will loosen the fingers and build dexterity or speed with them. The combination of these two things will eventually lead to being able to play with some fluidity. Also you will build the all essential calluses on your fingertips while you are learning.
By using this tips on finger play while still working between the frets.. It will take practice and more practice to get a real hold of the guitar, but it will be worth it when you are truly a guitar player.
