I taught myself to play Guitar 14 years ago.Didn't know how to even hold one.

Bought a $150 Pawn Shop Acoustic and some Beginners Books.

It was slow and frustrating.

I learned a lot of chords.Got to where I could change Chords.

Starting buying Songbooks of Music I like.

The Complete Who,Pink Floyd,Led Zepplin,Simon and Garfunkle,etc....

It becomes fun then

14 years later I'm,not bad.I entertain the heck out of myself.

Probably know between 70-100 songs.

It's relaxing to play Music.

It's almost like Meditating as far as relaxation,Blood Pressure,and probably the part of your Brain that gets active and the others that Pause.

Good Luck and have fun.

This is my Guild DV-4.
