I've always felt that learning and understanding the I-IV-V progression was an important key to unlocking real growth for guitar players. Everything else seems to become clearer; intervals, chord and note relationships, everything. This should be among the first 'theory' lessons beginners get once they are comfortable with playing and changing basic chords.
