Welcome to the site!

Since you've been playing for some time, and you can pick and fret already, I think you'll pick up the "whys" pretty quickly. All of the theory will make perfect sense, and you'll get a lot of "AHA! That's why it sounds good" moments.

I played for many years before I knew what an arpeggio was, but it really felt great to discover the theory behind music.
