How to Read Music Notes
you dont need to learn to read music to play guitar but if you are wanting to take it professionally its proably a good idea to start learning.
the scope of the topic is far to wide for a site like this, but to get you started here are a few tips.

they rhythym is derived by what notes are on the stave and the pitch is derived by how high or low the notes are placed on the stave.
its probably best to find a good book on the topic, i bought one years ago called how to read music by terry burrows, it takes you from being a complete novice to some very complex ideas, i also taought my self, hey im no virutoso but i can read up to a grade 5….
anyway pm me if you want some ideas
heres a link to amazon for some ideas
