Well Im 46 years old ,I am a father of 3 ,I have been a paramedic for 19 years and I live in Ohio . I have been playing the drums for a while and can read drum music(not tabliture) ,and I have a drum instructor.

I am now going to try and teach myself the acoustic guitar,I just purchased an ibanez acoustic /electric and thought this is the place to come for help.

So Im wondering the best way to get started,Should I start with chords?

I was told to buy a fake book with some songs in it that I like and to go about it that way..

Ill take any and all suggestions..Thanks
