the guitar is an easy instrument to play, but it is a difficult instrument to master.
that is to say, if you want to learn a few chords, some strumming, and enough so that you can play along with the average rock'n'roll song on the radio, it's not all that tough.
but to get to be a real master of the instrument takes years of hard work.
to start with, what you need is a basic chord book, some strumming and/or picking instruction, you can work on some basic blues or pentatonic scales, and that will keep your hands full for some time. there are lots and lots of good resources out there, both in books and on the internet. go into your local store and choose one that looks like it's suited to your interests.
I hope you have a lot of fun. making music is oing to give you years of pleasure. good luck!!

Guitar can be fun when your learning new stuff. Tell you the truth I am bored of it now but l0l yes learn. At most ASKIP'S shops they sell a pack for 130$ with a squire fender and an amp. Thats what most people get. And advice i have is~ People get guitars and learn the songs they like off tabs. Dont start with tabs Notes are the real thing.

I tried to teach a friend guitar once and after about 15 minutes his fingers hurt so much he decided he really didn't want to learn. So it might be good to play around with one at a guitar store first to make sure it's something you want to put the effort into.
I've always thought it was worth the pain and after a little while your fingers get calluses on the tips and it doesn't hurt anymore.

You might wanna start off with an acoustic guitar...
1). Understand MUSIC
2). Learn the basic chords..CDEFGAB
3). Learn to create strumming patterns
4). Learn to create plucking patterns
5). Learn the more complex chords like minors, major7, 2nds, 5ths, sustained, augmented..
6). Understand MUSIC THEORY and your on your own...

not that hard if you start with acustic because once you get good with that then you can play anything, and therer are alot of really cool songs that you can play easily and if you keep to it then go for it!
