Demo preview. The lesson paths, fees, and saved progress on this site are not the school's final offer.

Hold the guitar, check the tuning, and name each open string.

In class

Settle the guitar on the strumming leg, keep the neck angled up a little, and play each open string. The names from thick to thin are E, A, D, G, B, E.

After this lesson you can

  • Hold the guitar so the fretting hand is free
  • Play one open string without hitting the next one
  • Say E A D G B E as you play them
