You can choose to either continue to flounder or to get lessons with a professional guitar teacher and actually learn how to play. It’s your choice, but I’d advise going with lessons.
Good luck.

Mykey is correct. Until you get some one-on-one instruction from an accredited guitar teacher or at least from an accomplished guitarist you will continue to make errors while performing the basics of guitar playing.

I am also teaching myself and i have to say i know i would benefit from a teacher. but like the other guy said, just go shop around on youtube.

Hey.. James here..
It wasn’t until probably the last six months or so that I’ve been able to play the guitar. I’ve always been very interested since a young age considering my dad and his brothers pretty much grew up on the guitar and drums. It’s always been in the family and when I would watch them play they always made it look so easy.. it seemed like almost a natural thing for them. I tried for years to learn how to play… tried to have my father help me, looked to books to teach me, spent hours on youtube watching people try to explain.. etc. Nothing ever really worked. I eventually gave up for a few years then just within the past year or so I became interested in it again when I would see all these girls just going crazy over musicians at shows/concerts… lol. So I started looking online and came across this website .. http://www.guitar.pcti-system.com … which is an online program with videos and the works that teaches everything you need to know to learn how to play.
It’s probably the best tutorial/instructional course I’ve ever seen… I learned how to play the guitar very quickly and now it seems like I can almost play songs by ear.. something my uncle can do. I’m actually planning on tryin to start up a band with a few friends of mine after I get myself a newer more expensive better quality guitar. But I definitely would have never learned it if it wasn’t for that course.
I hope I was of some help to you my friend, and I wish you the best of luck! Rock on.
