    Have you ever heard of tabs?? Well, they are good if you just want to learn how to play songs...mxtabs.net

    The numbers correspond with the fret and it goes from lowest string going up to the highest. Its fun just to mess around with...other than that, you just have to stick through...I started out learning the notes and then putting them together into chords...etc. Patience.

    Sometimes books can be a waste of money. What style do you most want to play? Rythmn or lead?

    There's so much free stuff on the web if you know what you are looking for. But start with the triads I mentioned. tabs are a good suggestion and chord picture books. Although they can be overwheming, some of them have hundereds of chords. Triads are what is called a moveable chord. Which just means that the chord shape stays the same but you can move it to create a new chord. Example; move a C major triad two frets up and it becomes a D major triad. Triad is just a fancy name for a 3 note chord. Here's a great free site for learning chords for guitar.

    I have a bass guitar I am trying to teach myself how to play. I bought Bass Guitar for dummies a couple of weeks ago and it is helping quite a lot. It is written by Patrick Pfeiffer, and has a recomendation from Adam Clayton of U2. The good part about it is it comes with a cd I can listen to while playing to see if I am doing it correctly.

    He felt a bit drunk
    And fell off his bunk
    And landed smack into his shoe
