Don't know what possessed me since, up to now, I've shown all the musical proclivity of the average house brick, but I went browsing eBay and picked myself up a nice-ish acoustic guitar for thirty quid. Which is not a bad deal.
I've been pootling around the web, trying to find tutorials/lessons on how to play the thing. I've had some succes - found a nifty app for my iPad that's in the form of a game, using the mic to listen to you play - and it's going quite well so far. Also have a beginner's book, which I haven't really dug into yet.
Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone had any general advice, or good sites for n00bs, or even just some encouragement since I'm still very much finding my feet and having to convince myself not to give up almost every time I pick the thing up.
