Hi, My name is Luke, i come from Hampshire England.

Im new to the site so please excuse my lingo i the words i say iim half hampshire hog and half cockney!

I have been learning the guitar for a little over three years now.
At first i practised for perhaps 2 hours a day and there were some times where i didn't practise two weeks to maybe a month.
After learning to play some easy tracks it insired me to learn more.
Over the past year i very rarely miss a day where i do not play.

The problem is i know the chords and strumming pattern to the songs i want to learn but cannot get the chord shapes fast enough. No matter how hard i try i my fingers do not hold down the chords at the same time.

After playing for a while i have great interest in playing the guitar and would love to play it fantastically, but i'm sure that everyone feels the same or felt the same when learning.

At the age of 21 am i too late to learn? I know the answer is going to be no your never too young, i just get so frustrated that i cannot do something on the guitar.

Can someone please help me? How long would i have to practise before i could get these chord shapes at the same time? perhaps in hours per week or something.

I would also like to know a little more about yourself and how long you have been playing so i can get familiar with a few users.
