  The best road is?

Could any of you longplaying guys tell me the best procedure learning the guitar play?

I am most interested in learning some kind of fingerplay, spanish still or bossa nova kind of play. I realize that I have to know some chords, but where do I start as I do not want to play this monotonous chord1 - chord2 - chord3 - chord1 - chord3 - chord2 musik?

Welcome to the forum.

Well, most people start strumming chords. When you know some chords you can probably start fingerpicking. But then again, what do I know.

I would make sure you can comfortably switch between a few chords, and then ofcourse you can start doing more complicated stuff.

I already is comfortable switching between E - Em - A - Am - C - D - G - Gsus9 - Csus9, but the F chord is killing me, the E string always sounds like shit! :-)
