Free guitar lessons.  Hey - if it's not free, it's not on this page.   Thankfully, there are lots of guitar players out there willing to educate us for free.  We salute them!

Many lessons assume you already know how to play the guitar.  But what about the beginner?  Matthew Smith provides us with the basics.  The first lesson starts with an introduction and guitar basics, and ends with how-to-tune.  The second section features chord basics and diagrams.   The final lesson covers musical scales.  Matthew's page was part of the Netspace project at Brown University.   Maybe he'll write more one day.  Meanwhile, here's a hundred other lesson links.
