Either it can take you a few hours just to memorize the notes/chords, or a couple days if you have to figure out where to place your fingers on the neck (where the frets are) and what and how to play the different strings. But i mean if you have the basis of how to play it shouldn't take that long to play and memorize. Also i think it has to do with how much you practice. If you happen to play the guitar a lot then it should be quick and easy to learn.<br><b>References : </b><br> I believe it all depends on your experience.

The best way to do it is work on one section at a time. It is a pretty long song, but not overly difficult. Go to ultimate-guitar.com and find a tab that has the best rating, and practice it until you get comfortable playing without the tab. It won't be long before you are rocking like metallica.<br><b>References : </b><br> Depends on your skill level and dedication to learning it. The best way to do it is work on one section at a time.

If you can't read either try to play it by ear, but chances are you suck anyway.

They are very simple and short, and will have you playing in no time! I'm going to put a new one up every Friday. Once you know how to read chord diagrams (as I show in my first lesson) you can look up any chord diagram you like and you'll be able to work out how to play the chord. Then, once you can read guitar tab, which I will cover in a few weeks, you can go onto websites like http://www.ultimate-guitar.com and play songs by your favourite bands and artists.<br><b>References : </b><br>http://www.youtube.com/user/UKGuitarGirl http://www.ultimate-guitar.com I have started giving free online guitar lessons at http://www.youtube.com/user/UKGuitarGirl.

As somebody said those ''guitar for dummies'' are great, however that is as a side tool to reference to. not to just teach yourself, at a glance you learn the basics but when you study those books they can get quite complicated & a teacher can clear any questions you have. a teacher also encourages you to practice & gives you set goals.
