How do you learn to play guitar and have fun?
Question by Karissa: How do you learn to play guitar and have fun?
I love to sing and write songs, but to be successful in any way I will need to learn either guitar or piano, and seeing that I already own a guitar, I hope to learn that. I need suggestions, cuz whenever I pick it up I just get frustrated or bored trying to learn chords. I need help!

You have yet to reach that level of self-motivation to excel at the guitar, move beyond the painful fingertips until the calluses arrive, and develop chord knowledge.
Get a book of chords or Hal Leonard’s Guitar Method #1 booklet. Inside are instructions on tuning, chord formation, and basic music theory.
Frustration will sway if you have a definite plan to overcome each stage of playing. Being bored with it tells me you really haven’t the interest to go beyond the effort required to learn the instrument.
