Learning to play guitar isn’t as tough as it first seems. Many players actually pick it up all on their own but there are other ways to speed up the learning process. I started playing when I was about 15 or so and it was slow going at first but with practice I got a little bit better.
The next thing I did was pick up a Guitar Lesson Book that focused on chords and scales. I know it sounds a bit crazy but if you can get the main chords and scales down you can actually start writing your own songs.
