Electric guitars are generally much easier to play than acoustic guitars. The strings are lighter, and easier to press down. The sore fingers that many novices experience when learning on an acoustic guitar generally aren’t nearly as much of an issue when learning on electric guitar. Electric guitars have a different role in music than acoustic guitars. Whereas acoustic guitars are often used to strum chords to many songs, electrics are used to play “guitar leads” as well as chords.
In your basic electric guitar lesson you need to first learn to check if your guitar is set up correctly. The strings need to be placed at a perfect distance from the frets as this is what will decide if the sounds are produced properly or you play your hands till it is sore.
Know Your Type of Music
Listen to music You should be doing this already. But, now that you’ve decided you want to know how to play songs on electric guitar, music listening will take on a whole new level. When you listen to your favorite stuff, listen to the guitars (that probably made you want to buy a guitar) and take note of the subtleties. Watch DVD’s as well and take careful notice at how the notes are being played. One of the things you should see is that hacking is out – guitar playing generally sounds louder than it actually looks. You don’t need to hack the guitar to get a good sound out of it, but there are definitely certain dynamics involved with ‘dirtier’ and ‘cleaner’ sounds. But, you should also listen to OTHER kinds of music now too, and take in the fresh styles and different ways of playing guitar. Learning these styles will actually even improve how you play your own favorite style.
Practice! Practice!
There are numerous ways of practicing. You should practice along with your favorite CD’s to develop a good ear (being able to pick up notes easily.)
Jam! Jam!
Yes, this is the fun part. Get together with some musicians, and JAM. Scales will help you to jam better, but here you can also experiment. And experimentation is the key to learning. At first, you may be nervous to jam with other guys. Get over it, and enjoy yourself!

It’s so easy just to leave the guitar in the corner and pickup something else. If you stay in the game and find the best learning tools for your style, yyou won’t have a single regret to have guitar electric lessons.
