Welcome to GT. This is a good place to get some help. Most of the folks here are very, very knowledgable and the rest of us are new too. This site has a boat load of free tutorials on the home page. Check those out. They do help a great deal. Don't hesitate to post questions here on the forum. I am sure that you will get a lot of very helpful answers. I would offer you some advice but I am new to the guitar as well so there's nothing I can tell you that would help you.
Good luck and practice, practice, practice. :)
