I am 23 and I wanted to pick up a music instrument since like 10 years ago. I tried keyboard and acoustic guitar but never really got interested enough to master them. Recently I’ve a new found interest of electric guitar and would like to develop a passion into playing it. I’m not a punk, but I’m getting attracted to it and rock music. Some of my favorite listenings include Creed, Linkin Park, Bon Jovi, Nirvana, Metallica, Puddle of Mudd, Oasis, RHCP, 3 Doors Down, Coldplay, Evanesence, Santana and Japanese like Mika Nakashima. I know it’s different for each individual to master an instrument but if I have 1 hour to spend playing the guitar each day, how long will it take to play a full tune, average said? How much money do I need to start off a beginner with a decent electric guitar and an amp? As for what’s going on with my life, I am currently working 9-6 each day except on weekends, I am living with my family and I have a girlfriend.
