Before you know how to read a guitar sheet music, you need to know how to read the name of the lines and the spaces of the staff.
If you look in a piece of sheet music, you are going to notice that each system of stance has 5 lines and 4 spaces, and there's always a strange symbol in the beginning.
Guitar music starts to be written from the bottom up in the "G Clef", yeah that strange symbol has a strange name too.
Why it is called G Clef?
Because it starts on the second line from the bottom, the G note.
Oh look! You just learned a new note! The G note. So what about the others? Of course there are other notes, and I am going to tell about them right now.
The notes in ascending orders are A, B, C, D, E, F, and the G.
In the beginning I mentioned about 5 lines and 4 spaces, remember?
Each line or space in the piece of sheet music coincides to a note, so if we read the notes on the line, from the bottom up...
Lines:
F
D
B
G
E
Spaces:
E
C
A
F
I think you might know the acronym to remember those notes right? Even if you already know, I am going to mention it, because it is very important and it helps a lot in the learning process:
E - Every G - Good B - Boy D - Does F - Fine
For the spaces notes, you don't need to remember any acronym, just remember the word:
FACE
Really simple uh?
This is just a learning method, later on, you will be a pro and you will not need to remember those acronyms, every time you will be playing a guitar; yeah I know they are funny acronyms, but you can't stick with them forever, it would be annoying to play a guitar while thinking "Every Good Boy Does Fine" and "Face" all the time.
That's it for this article, I gave you the basic about how you can read a guitar sheet music, but this isn't the end of the road, if you want to play a guitar there are still a lot of things you need to know, but with these basic concepts, you can start dreaming to be a Pro guitar player in a couple of months, or maybe sooner, it depends on your effort and time spent in the right place.
