Just discovered this site tonight and WOW!!! I'm really impressed with all of the learning potential here!!! Still working on the free lessons and plan to upgrade!! I've played guitar for quite awhile, but need to invest more time to develop my skills. This certainly seems like the right place to do that!!

Hi GuitarPickinGal,

Good to see another new person here. I tried the free membership....for about 20 minutes, then upgraded. I think this site is just what I'm looking for.

Have fun!

Just so happy to know I'm not the only new member. Discovered GT last night and I'll soon be a full member. I think this is the greatest guitar site for self taught learners like myself. looking forward to improve my guitar playing. And this is definitely the right place.

Got a guitar about a year ago, and I've been following the cd but have'nt gotten far. Viewed this site about 5 mos ago, and well you see im here. Never thought it would be so difficult to learn. With three kids maybe its having time to really practice w/o annoying everyone including my wife ha ha.
Well I'm gonna really get after it, and see what I can do.

Hey Roadhog74, just stick to it. I recommend waking an hour or two before your family to practice.

I have been on the site for about 3 months now and what a learning experience it has been. I have been playing for 35 years and to be honest my guitar playing had stagnated, but this site oepned up a whole new world. I am finally getting the hang of playing lead electric. I have been primarily an acoustic player and singer. I knew how to do what I did pretty well but it was getting old covering the same ground time and time again. I am going to be here for awhile for sure!

Hi all new people! I am in the same boat as many on this site. I had been playing off and on for years learning by ear and from books.

I decided to get serious about learning last May. This site is great. There is so much to learn and so many styles. I have improved quite a bit since I joined. Now that they have been adding full song lessons, I am really excited and inspired to get good enough to play the ones I really like!

Keep practicing and playing. As with anything, the only way to get good is spend a lot of time doing it!

You will also find all of the teachers are great and more than happy to answer your questions and give tips and pointers!

I'm sure they'd love being woken up by shredding with the amp turned up to 11 at 5 in the morning!

I joined 2 days ago in the middle of night shift madness, and I'm impressed by what I've seen so far. I'm pretty hopeless, apart from two or three songs I learnt to butcher last year. Onwards and upwards...

I used to bang on the guitar...15+ years ago and started again. I have learned more in three weeks than I ever knew before. Yes, guitar tricks was and is worth the money.
