Actually I'm learning on both, switching back and forth depending on what I want to try to play at the time.....mostly all ac/dc on the electric since it sounds pretty lame on the acoustic. Acoustically, I've been doing chords and strumming, but my biggest pain there is getting the right strum patterns since I have trouble picking that out of a song when I listen to it. As of yet, I really have no preference other than the acoustic is easier to just pick up and play without having to hook up the amp.

I appreciate all the support guys...it really does keep me going!

I think I have a pretty good lock on the D, E, Em, Dsus, A, Am, Asus, and G chords right now..... I know C, but have trouble switching with it(which I keep on with repetition on that one).

Strum patterns are throwing me through a loop now, and I notice its more when I'm trying to sing it either aloud or run the lyrics in my head(if I even have the right pattern).

I just finished up an hour long chord changing practice with a new song inspired by the beautiful weather here in PA...something about all that sunshine got me wanting to play some Kenny Chesney....When the sun goes down(fairly simple chords and I know them all so that ended me with a good attitude).

Thanks again for all the feedback........you guys rock!
