Hello Old, I'm from England and I'm nearly 50 years young too!
Also had the urge last year and I'm so glad I did! The progress I have made has just been fantastic and I absolutely love it!
If you can promise yourself that you will play for 5 minutes a day (which will turn into hours) Start slow, don't give up, persist, push yourself to learn more, but also know when to take a break and rest. You can do this!
Pick a guitar you like the look of as you will want to play it more.
Good luck and have fun!
hello fellow almost 50! 5 minutes a day sounds doable.
I’ve not done it every day so far. Sometimes I’m ready to just crash.
I have started the basics course and sometimes I’ll do a couple of a whole chunk of them.
I wouldn’t say the guitar I have is a looker. I wanted to see if I was capable first. I’m not sure where I would start to be honest.
thanks for the welcome!
