    Is that a joke?
    You play it like a normal guitar?
    But you need an amp…

    Who bought it for you? What a crap present.

    Learning to play an instrument requires some dedication, you will have to practice and find something that will keep you going. Get a chord book and learn some basic chords then learn to play your favorite bands songs, as you progress and get used to having the instrument in your hands it will get simpler and you will look for more challenging songs to learn, eventually you will start writing your own.
    Practice, practice and practice.

    well if you already play an acoustic guitar
    its the same except you plug it into an amp
    but if you don’t play
    you need to take lessons or get a kit that you can teach yourself

    just answered one like this
    ONLY IF YOU WANT TO PLAY GUITAR DO THIS:
    now, learn your basic strings E,a,d,g,b,e then later you can go to different tuned strings
    learn different things, go for basic stuff and then go from there. KNOW YOUR GUITARS learn parts of it, and try and get a excellent quality amp. when you play dont expect it to be excellent—keep on practicing
    ultimate guitar and 911 tabs are 2 excellent sites, but you can simply look up guitar training or beginner guitar help on google/yahoo and look at that. POWERTAB!!!! download powertab, its free and works pretty well, but you might have to wait in begining cause it might not read the tabs you download at first i had to wait maybe 2 weeks before i can do it quickly(before i had 50% chance of getting saved and played) i know sounds crappy but give it time
    OR you can buy GUITARPRO i reckon around 50$ try the demo
    explanation: guitarpro and powertab are programs that allow you download certain tabs from sites that give the option (ultimate guitar for sure)
