When it comes to learning guitar, one of the first thing most of us do is start learning famous riffs from our favorite songs. And while I am a big fan of learning entire songs...sometimes you just need to play some riffs. Learning how to play easy riffs is a great way to get yourself motivated & inspired & out of a rut of just practicing exercises & drills. This will help you make sure that you have actual music that you're working on instead of getting hung up on the academics of playing guitar. Hope this helps you out!
