How to improve your guitaring technique and play guitar clean.

This article will help you to play your guitar clean and reduce all the unwanted string noises. Do try to use an electric guitar if possible while practicing as electric guitar will produce noise for even the slightest of string movement. If you do not have an electric guitar then even acoustic guitar will do.


1. Focus 

      Focus is the most important thing that you need to perfect your guitaring. Most of the guitarist know that something is wrong while they are playing but cannot tell exactly where they are making a mistake. The best solution for this is focus. Focus on your fingers or plectrum movements and simultaneously on what you hear. If this is not effective then try to record your songs 2 - 3 times and see what is the difference between all the tracks for whether you hear any unwanted sounds. Then try to correct that portion. Another way of doing this is to have someone with you who knows guitar or has some knowledge about guitar. Let him stand in front of you and tell you your mistakes. Try these things and you will surely improve.

2. Playing guitar fast yet clean

              After you have learnt to focus take some crazy guitar solo of  your favorite song that you like but never could play it that fast.
Now try practicing that solo but now in some other way.

1. Use a metronome(If you do not have a metronome then there are lots of apps available online)

2. After you get metronome set it at 70 bpm 

3. Now try playing the solo in sync with the metronome
  (The key for this is slow playing until you get each and every not correct and that sounds right)

4. After you get perfect at 70 bpm increase the speed by 10 bpm and practice at this speed

5. Now go on increasing it likely till you get to the original speed of that lead. After playing for a while you will also realize that you can play even faster than the original tempo and that to each note sounding correctly.

Note:

Patience is very important while practicing this technique you will take almost a month or more to get perfect and clean. 

You need to practice this daily for at least 2 hours.
