Hi. I'm just starting out playing acoustic guitar, so nobody laugh at me, because this is probably a stupid question. I'm familiar with reading the notes on a staff, but I don't know what fret of what string to play. Example, the clef said to play e-major and there's a note at the e on the very bottom, what would I do? I've been trying to find this out for weeks and I'm finally asking someone, so if someone could help me, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...

go here. You'll see a chart of notes and which string and fret to use. Also chords and scales.

you can even listen on line to make sure that you get it right.
