The air guitar has inspired millions to pick up rock without knowing how to read music or play an instrument.It's the spirit that counts and air guitarists worldwide have a meaningful connection through the joy of strumming away at the imaginary guitar.Being a tool of imagination, it's not hard to learn to play air guitar, but you have to know how to make it look awesome.It's essential to have lots of fun with friends or solo.
Step 1: You can find the right kind of music.
It's recommended that you try metal/rock or punk, as these tend to have the right pace, energy and rhythm needed for good air guitar playing.Most air guitar players are capable of playing electric guitar music.Most other music genres are hard to play air guitar to, some are too slow, others are melancholy, and some just plain complicated.
Step 2: Pick a song and section.
The best place to play an air guitar is a guitar solo section.The longer this section, the better it will be for you to be involved in the playing.It is important to include some riffs.
Step 3: First, listen to the notes.
Imagine that you are making sounds.It's a part of imitating that you think you're the center of attention as the crowd clamors for more.The music for the air guitar session must be as loud as possible.It's best that way.
Step 4: Get the stance right.
To level your crotch, spread your legs out wide and bend your knees a bit.One hand in front of your belt buckle is how to hold the guitar in place.Your palm should face you at the fret spot that a real guitar player would play frets and have the other hand up in the air with the fingers spread, pointing toward you.
Step 5: Fingering the 'frets' is a good way to start strumming.
The higher the note, the lower the hand should be.No real guitar player will play with the guitar down to their knees if you put your hand down too low.Occasionally, you care for the imaginary neck of your guitar by running your hand up and down it.Get moving!This isn't just about moving your hands around.Get the whole body involved.Lift those legs, then jump up and down.The Jerky movements and slides are great additions.If you want to be really cool, try some Jimi Hendrix style moves with your air guitar; behind your head, playing with teeth, doing spins and moves like that.Don't worry, it'll fix itself if you smash it up at the end.
Step 6: Add some singing.
Loud singing or lip-syncing will accompany your exaggerated strumming motion.If you don't want to be a singing guitar player, then this step is optional.This can help you get into the spirit if you love the lyrics.If you can't sing, loud "yess" are considered mandatory by some air guitar players.
Step 7: You should grab a friend.
It is fun alone and fun with someone else.An air buddy is willing to jam with you.They might be able to join in on the bass.You will look less ridiculous and others might join in.The merrier.It's time to let it rock!
