Your first string, it's really easy, there's only six strings on a standard guitar and I'm going to teach you an acronym in order to remember the names of your strings from low to high. The first one is Elvis. It's the letter E, okay? It's your E strings. Your low E string. I want you to repeat it after me, okay? It's Elvis, always delights gorgeous bimbos everywhere. That's the acronym you're going to use in order to remember the names of your strings. Simply put it's your low E, A string, D string, G string, B string, and then your high E string. Again that's Elvis always delights gorgeous bimbos everywhere. In order to remember your strings I would like you to come up with your own acronym to remember, okay?
