Greetings from PA
hey everyone, just wanted to introduce myself. im new to the forums and new to guitar. Recently picked up a Yamaha F310 acoustic for $30 from a friend (amazing shape). and have been playing for about 2-3 hours a day, trying to learn. i have been playing piano since i was 6 (im 20 now) and have been told i have a good ear for music, so i decided to try and pick up guitar. Any advice for a beginner would be appreciated, best of luck to you all.

Welcome, (if your buddy has any more gems he's eager to sell...OOOPS! I forgot, I'm not allowed for a while!)
Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.

I probably never listen to how other songwriters write their songs, I just write on using my own imagination. windsong

Playing guitar is like playing 6 pianos at the same time. Once you see that, you will find it a lot easier to get into. Use what you already know.

Hello Damian and welcome to the site...
Playing another instrument will definitely help you picking up another.Having a good ear is also a plus...Good luck trying to learn to play the guitar and feel free to post any questions that may come up...Have fun there...
