Hi Mick52. I recently bought a great little book called "The complete picture guide to playing the guitar" by Joe Bennett & Arthur Dick
A really big help to get you started. I paid about 3 quid for it on ebay.
Have fun

Welcme Mick!

What is it that you cannot understand?
Maybe we can help you.

Is it the TAB that you are having trouble with Mick? If so, there's a lesson on understanding tablature here - Tablature - what it is and how it works
