I don't think you're quite ready for this level of musical expression.

Stick with clapping for now

Stop being such a pussy. Every musician had to for through not knowing how what to do. But the thing that you have that millions didn't is the internet. So stop being such a faggot and look up YouTube videos. Justinguitar is good place to start. And go get lessons from your local musician shop, it'll help a fucking a lot

With a bow.

Hello summerfag.

You strike or pluck the string to get it yo vibrate, vibration makes sound.

The strings will make a different pitch at the metal areas on the neck, called frets. Without pressing on the string is called open note, fretted notes when pressed down on frets.

As you move closer to the body, the pitch raises. These pitch changes are called notes. ABCDEFG. Those are your notes, all notes have a sharp, except for b and e. Just b natural, dont be sharp.

Hitting different notes at once is a chord.

Thats the basics. You get into posture and chord shapes as you learn more. Take your time and dont get frustrated and give up.

Yell into the sound hole and tickle the strings to generate music.
