The Guitar Page
Welcome the the rootnode.org page for guitar players. This is the place to find everything from guitar lessons to tips on recording your guitar. If you enjoy this new section, let us know.
This is our archive of guitar lessons. These lessons come from rootnode users, public mailing lists, and the OLGA. If you would like to add a lesson that you have written, send it to us!
This is a new feature on rootnode. Just type in the band or song and get back links to the tab. More tabs are indexed all the time!
Put in the key and the mode and we will generate a scale diagram for you!
Trying to figure out how to play that weird chord? Check out this chord generator. This is an off-site link to www.olga.net.

Anatomy of a successful DIY release (Part 1) |
| By moron.
First, let's get the reality check out of the way. Unless you are going to dedicate 110% of your time, effort, sanity and intenstinal fortitude for the rest of your life to becoming a massive musical phenomenon, as well as prostituting yourself to some of the most soulless and sociopathic corporations on the planet, you have less than zero chance of selling a million records and appearing in Pepsi ads. The same reasons that dictate that bumbling fools like George Bush or platform agnostic chameleons like Al Gore are your only options for political office are the same forces that put female Michael Jackson impersonators like Britney Spears in Walmarts and 7-11s the continent over. So unless you are related to David Geffen or especially adept at offering sexual favours to the lawyer elite, DIY is the way to go.
What's this DIY then? For the acronym-challenged out there DIY stands for "Do It Yourself" and has come to represent an entire cultural mindset of "shitworkers" - not a derogatory term, refers to folks willing to perform gruntwork because they care passionately about something - and motivated individuals. If you want something done right, or in this case, done at all, then you have to do it yourself.
