I didn't know beans about music or playing or anything much 5 months ago. I only knew what I liked to listen too. What I found very helpful was getting the music (with tabs preferably) and putting in the cd of what I was interested in and following alone as the music played. I did this alot. And when I picked up the guitar and finally started trying to play it with my chord chart on the wall not only do you know what the note looks like on paper, you know what it sounds like, you know where it's at on the fretboard. Granted it took me months, but i'm starting to "get it" and I really feel it was well worth my time to do it.
