  • That’s fine. You can try learn yourself. I’m just saying it’ll be a slower process. The thing with instruments and music in general is that coming in with no knowledge of music theory at all will require a fair bit of work that’s much easier if someone explains it to you. Having said that you dont need music theory to just play some tunes. Learn all the open chords, practice switching between them and you’ll be able to make your own music soon enough.

    I would take a look at Songsterr.com. I use it all the time for playing along with songs where you can read the tab and hear how it should sound.

    Remember that you might want to play like Jimmy Page or John 5, but you probably don’t want to do what they did to get there. That’s the same with anything. You don’t see the hours and hours of hard work that went in to being able to play that good. Just stick with it. Set yourself an achievable goal and stick with it.
