Here some advise from a 52 year old geezer. Go for it.. If you really want to learn and master the guitar you will. I have been learning new things my whole life. To me it is what makes life living. It's like gravy on the mashed potatoes. Since 21, I have learned much, At 40 I took up the Bass Guitar and got good enough to play in a band. At 45 I took up sailing. Now I sail very well and have a nice 33' sailboat.. Now at 52 I am not only learning more about the guitar. But I just started learning to play the piano.. This was all on top of going to college at 40, 48 going through the MCSE networking courses, Learning how to be a good husband and dad, and at 49 starting and running and Restaurant Computer systems business.. If you really want to do some thing do it, you will not have any regrets. Regrets come when you don't do the things you wanted to. When you are in the pine box facing up it's too late.... So as those Nike commercails say "Just Do it!!!!
