Start learning basic chords, you should probably learn how to read music if you can't already. And not just tabs. :p

Yeah, I did the chords part already, I got them good...I think Iīll train to switch them fast, cause I have difficulty on some of them still...
Anything else?

Dude, could you, like, put this in simple words for a non-native english speaker?

I learned the guitar by doing 2 things.
1- First, I learned the MAJOR chords, (not the minors, or anything augmented) I got chord diagrams of of the O.L.G.A. google that shizzy......And I educated myself in what a POWER CHORD IS.
2-I found a band I liked, with a simple style....In my Case, Nirvana...And I studied their music, and learned their songs through TABULATURE.
After three years of sucking, I finally figured out what I was doing.5 years later, I sounded pretty decent. Learned my scales, and worked on picking.
And now Every sunday....well, not anymore, because I moved last week, some 3000 K away, I used to go play blues slide guitar, With some buddies at open Mic night.
Dont restrict yourself to one kind of music, simply because its what your friends like.
My friends Hate country and Blues. So did I. And then I found I had a knack for it, and began to appreciate the music more.
Good Luck man. Just dont ever expect the guitar to put food on your table, because thats stupid.

Drace:
It all depends on how you set the bar for yourself, on what "decent" i.Dont be Rude.
Id be willing to bet that after a year and a half youre just "decent "at one or two genres or styles. But then again, thats just my opinion.
Ive met professionals who think they suck, that dont. And some that say how good they are, but can only write one or two types of song. Dont be aarogant.

If I see you online for once, I can help you. It's faster to explain things then. I'm not so good as Des most likely and I don't know many of the terms, but I can help out.

Back in the day, like 12 years ago, when I started, I starting playing songs that were way too ******* hard for me. The first time I ever touched a guitar I started learning 'The Trooper' by Iron Maiden. It was really hard to learn, but when I was able to play it flawlessly, I could play the **** other people were still struggling with with ease. When people who started learning at the same time still couldn't play Iron Man or Smoke on the Water all the way through, I was moving on to Hendrix and Satriani.. so, that's my advice. Learn stuff that's way too hard for you.

Yeah I started by myself. I didn't take lessons for like 2 years.

hM...Could you guys give more examples of those, like, bands and song names? The tabs Iīll get...
Originally posted by Desimodontidae
Ahh... The Trooper. Love playing it. My friend who's an awesome guitarist tought me how to play it. I agree with the learning of advanced stuff. It's not really that hard... of course I dont reccommend an absolute beginner to try out some Yngwie or Becker... but ya know..

Dont start with atreyu. Theyre garbage anyways. Real men dont sing about mascara.

Dude, you just quoted them...that makes you even gay-er.
I saw atreyu last year, and that douche meldoy frontman they have was wearing so much eyeshadow....
You can quote it all you want....every second songs on their first two albums were in some way related to the medias impact on girls self esteem, or the smell of hair on pillows, or some emo crap like that.
Atreyu is Emo....er.....sorry.......Screamo....Hardcore screamo.Floor punching, Air kicking Emo and Hardcore kids ruining moshpits by beating up invisible men who try to oppress their hate for their dads that never hugged them.
And if thats not gay, I dont know what is.
The sad thing is, it sounds good at first....And then it goes to the dogs when you find the gayness.
Listening to Atreyu means you are one step away from tight girly pants and blonde streaks in black anime-hair.
But the atreyu fans are mostly a bunch of floor punching ex-limpbizkit fans anyhow.
And dont get me started on Silverstein...they opened that show, and I spent it with bleeding ears in the beer gardens waiting for the good bands to play.
*eagerly awaits a retort*

Okay....something usefull.
After you learn these by memory, be sure to practice the transition from chord to chord.
And if Drace still likes atreyu 3 years from now, Ill give him fifty dollars.

EDIT: Also, I can conclude from that anti-Atreyu post that you were never hugged by your dad. That's just sad to whine about that.
