So I've finally decided after always saying that I would pick one up and learn how to play that this year I will learn how to play. Before I got my acoustic for Christmas you have to understand that I never before in my life played a guitar other than just messing around (not knowing what I was doing).
I bought a couple of starter books and at the moment I'm freaking addicted. I can't stop playing. I can't wait to learn new chords and play chord progressions over and over until I can't feel the tip of my fingers anymore.
My question to all you guitar players out there is about how long does it take before you can switch easily from chord to chord without a noticeable pause and without of course looking at the fret board? I mean I know that the more you practice the easier and easier it gets but how long was it before you could do that? I practice anywhere between 30 minutes to 3 hours a day (mostly 30 minutes to an hour though because sadly I don't have that much free time ).
I don't have guitar lessons, I'm teaching myself everything and using those books to help me along. Should I find an instructor?
If you have any helpful tips that you think will help me out please post them here. Thanks.
