I started learning my guitar today and it wasn't that bad. :) I managed to learn how to tune it and finally make it sound right. I'm going to be focusing on the basics for now (since I'm teaching myself) so I started off with C Major which was pretty easy to learn. Everyone learns things in a different way, so if you ever like websites to learn the basics of guitar (i.e. names of the parts and how to play chords), this one is pretty good: http://www.howtotuneaguitar.org/lessons/

There is always Youtube, and of course Googling ''how to play guitar for free''...that one never gets old.
