well hey ive had my deperissions through out my 18 years (b day 12/28/82) so i dont argue with that.. ive been playing guitar for about 2/2.5 years and i couldnt do sh*t when i started.. just pick song to play, and if your determined enough to play it.. keep practicing that song untill you master it, then move from there... for some odd reason the song "runaround" by blues traveler is a very easy song to start with, and i know plenty of people who learned it first, like me.. :-) anyways just keep trying.. if you want it bad enough it WILL come.... practice makes perfect, and no ones perfect.. it takes time! i couldnt play **** for like the first month or so.. it took me forever just teaching my fingers to make them easy g,c,d,&e chord strechs.. but its like part of your brain after....
hope it helps at least a little....be determined to play!
