This is the best site I have seen for beginners as well as intermediate and maybe even advanced players. I am 65 and just picked up the guitar this past year, and have been very successful in learning using GT. Hope all the beginners have success. My suggestion might go against the format here, but when I was young, I found that I learned chords, and then learned a few songs and just went from there. To all beginners I suggest going through fundamentals 1 and 2, but with a grain of salt added. If you start to get frustrated, switch to a few beginner songs with the chords you know and then go back to lessons.
