Dont try to be Yngwie the first week. Take baby steps and build on each one. I agree that you probably need to invest in a few lessons though. Just 4 lessons can help you find the direction you need to go and then take off on your own. I didnt start lessons till I had been playing for 20 years. I really didnt know how much I needed to learn until I put my pride in my pocket and asked for help. Now it is taking off in leaps and bounds. BE PATIENT. If you learn it, it will come.
