For example i just learned through guitar tabs online (they show how tom play a song by telling the notes by fret and on which string) and i can play good. However, if you want to actually be able to name the chords you are playing or things like that i would recommend lessons. You can learn that also online... is helpfull for lessons and tabs, but if you want to be taught directly i would suggest lessons. It depends what you want to be able to do.

I have played guitar since I was sixteen and now I am 25 and when I started to get into hair metal type music I noticed I had some problems like I would tire out and my picking was bad. I started taking lessons with a guy from a guitar school in LA and took lessons as a starter to build up my mechanics. For 9 years I was playing my guitar wrong because I didn't take lessons and now its very hard to play the guitar right. There is a right way and a wrong way to play the guitar. Just take a few lessons to learn the proper positions and picking techniques. Its always good to have a very critical instructor. If your too poor for that then you can go on myspace or youtube and get beginner lessons for free. But get the picking techniques down first and foremost and make sure it is right. Practice is good when you practice the right things but if your practicing the wrong technique you can end up having trouble in the long run. Take it easy and take your time on it. Aim for quality not quanity. I would say take lessons to learn the mechanics first off.

But with lessons, it is good to have someone with experience to help you out. I think the fastest way to learn is to have a true, never give up passion to learn the instrument and always make time every day to practice. Passion, drive, and persistence can really make dreams come true. Enjoy your guitar. I think you can go either way as far as taking lessons or learning on your own.

You can definitely learn on your own but it takes a certain level of dedication and commitment. You don't have the weight of showing what you practiced to a teacher so sometimes it is easy to slack off. And of course with self education you are going to have holes in your knowledge. I took lessons from a number of teachers for a while and also learned a lot on my own. As far as how long, that depends on your commitment and how much you practice. Remember practice makes perfect. That's not just a corny saying, its the truth. Don't just listen to music passively. Try and pick out the chords and notes they are playing. Get some chord books. technique books scale books and start learning. Workshoplive.com offers online lessons but I can't say anything about how effective they are. A good teacher is hard to find.
