Lot of great resources here and elsewhere on the web. Tell us where you are at, and what you know and the great people here can guide you along. You have 3 guitars and a number of instructional DVD's, what can you play so far??

The hard work you'll have to put in yourself, but GFB&B sure helps. 
Great people, and great stuff to learn.
Welcome.

Welcome tcagle,
You can buy all the books and DVD's in the world. Spend a million bucks on them. But put all that aside. Open your heart and let the music roll down the pike. That's when you become a player. Guitar playing isn't attach part A to part B. It's attach your heart to the fretboard. The aroma of the wood and finish and your fingers noting the strings. Thats what it's all about. You create your tones.

Nothin, What steps would you suggest as a good starter, I guess what I am asking is what is the very first thing I should practice on? I know it will take time but where do I start? Just the thought of being able to play something that sounds like music drives me crazy with anticipation.
