hey, so ive been playing guitar for years and want to learn piano, so after i give you links and suggestions, you return favor, yes? :D :D :D :D :D :D

depends on how seriously you want to play. i mean, do you want to learn blink 182 songs, or do you want to be able to accompany, or play classical music, or just build up the skills that would let you do any of those?

you should start off with scales, learning to alternate pick, then learn chords, strum down AND UP. a lot of music stores (even just CD places) have posters with guitar chords on them, you can just post it on a wall and practice once every day or two, or you can find tabs for chords online and print them out.

you should already have some good individual finger control, so going up and down scales shouldn't be that difficult. work on skipping between strings though, you know, just jumping around larger intervals. this and being able to change quickly between different finger positions for chords are the most difficult things to learn. only other thing i can think to do atm is familiarize yourself with where the octaves are relative to eachother.

i was actually looking for piano/keyboard stuff when i came across these, and you might find them useful

so! any tips for learning piano, piano person? im thinking about taking a class at a local college over summer for very cheaps. but its intro and i think i might be better off just looking for lessons, since im fairly certain the basics would go too slow. my college inconveniently reserves most of its music classes for music majors. its rather inconvenient, as recently i've felt that i should more seriously approach music, and i've wanted to learn piano for a while.

sorry for lengthy length.
