Just play around with the sounds and make something original.
I tried messing around with my guitar and ended up playing the james bond theme song by ear.
Who would have known?
It was a bass liner though, nothing fancy.
Still try finding notes that sound good together, then turn it into a riff or something.
This goes for almost any instrument.


Sincerely,

Bandwith

A gallop is just two 16th notes followed by an 8th note, or you could also do an 8th note with two 16th notes after. It'll give you a sound somewhat similar to a horse galloping.

As for websites, I remember liking WholeNote quite a bit. I'd also recommend checking out Chord House for your scale and chord needs. Oh, and Cyberfret will teach you various techniques, and I believe they still have video demonstrations for them.

When I bought my first guitar, I played Children of Bodom, I say that, actually, I played all of their albums without messing up on the first try. Thats what I would do if I were you. I contribute to discussions in helpfull ways.

Yeah, you should just mess around with it, learn a couple of chords, come up with 4 that you like, learn to play them and then find the key and learn the scale they're in, and then just stick with that forever. (joke about forever) Then, anytime you need to get somthing out of your head, you can switch it into your key and figure it out a lot easier than knowing a shit ton of scales and transpositions.

First, make sure you can play those songs in perfect time and without mistakes. Make sure you're not rushing them. After that, try little dreamer by Van Halen, back in black or tnt by acdc, and finally, learn anything paul mccartney. Those songs will please any crowd. Especially blackbird (finger picking).
