Hi Everyone!

I am 37 and literally brand new to learning guitar. After watching Video 1, I now know that I purchased an acoustic steel cord guitar! Previously when someone asked me what kind of guitar I purchased, I said 'blue' which gives you an indication of my knowledge level! I'm still currently trialling Guitar Tricks but still haven't pulled the trigger on the membership yet as I have a couple of questions...

1) Is this the right place to learn guitar if I want to (eventually, in the future) be able play the type of songs like Asturias https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEfFbuT3I6A or Malguena https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3jWsoQ8W8g - I couldn't see this type of music listed in the 'music types' when I signed up?

2) Can I use Guitar Tricks alone or should I use another app like Yousician as well?

3) So I can manage my expectations, how long do you think it will it take me to get as good as those videos if I practice for 30 mins daily?

Any advice would be appreciated, thank you.
