The first skills to learn on guitar are tuning, basic chords, and simple strumming patterns.

• A tuner app or clip-on device helps you tune quickly and accurately.
• Open chords like E minor, A minor, C, G, and D are the building blocks of countless songs.
• A metronome helps you develop steady timing from the very beginning.

Once you can switch between a few chords smoothly, try playing along to a simple song you enjoy.
