I know this comes off as a silly question but I was seariously concidering joining this site but was wondering if it worth it. I dont mean by price. I'm more talking about the fact I am a semi compleat noob. I can hit the cowboy cords and play a few songs but wonderd if this was in the right direction. I only been playing for a little over a month now and a proud papa of a new electric dean and just want to head in the right direction. Any kind of insight on this would be cool. Oh yea sorry about the poor spelling "hooked on phonics didn't work for me"....lol
Is it realy worth it?

Well, I am certain that the others will give you their opinion, but let me tell you this much. I too am a relative 'noob' to the guitar. I have found this site to be invaluable to me for the following reasons: TONS of material. If you can't find it here, just ask. And the nature of the people on the site. There are many outstanding musicians here and they are all willing to answer any and all questions. Plus they're wonderfully supportive. All styles are welcome here. Doesn't matter what you play, how advanced you are (or not, as is my case) or what kind of guitar you happen to play.
Of course, ultimately, it's up to you if you think this site is right for what you want to learn but like all things, it's hard to gauge something just passing by. Take a look around and see what the others have to say. I'm willing to bet that you'll like it here.

Hi there!
You can start with the beginners section.
http://www.guitartricks.com/guide.php
Also one good place to start learning about the site is with the video tutorial section. You can find it on the main page "Guitar Tricks video user manual!".
Hope you enjoy it here :)

It's worth it. If not for the lessons, for the company.

The Lessons section is richly populated by great players who have the uncommon ability to show others how to play. Yeah, worth it.
The Forum has developed a community of players who share a common love for guitar, without the kind of flamefests that mar some other boards. You will find it's a lot like dropping in at your local pub to visit with people from all over the globe. And id someone here can't answer your questions, you are sure to get pointed to someone who can.
Enjoy! :)

I'll add something else too. This forum manages to stay on topic much better than say ...Harmony Central. I am a frequent visitor over there, and you really cannot get the same quality content like you have here.
