I would like to congratulate you as you have chosen one of the best instrument to learn. Every musical instrument is beautiful, I am just sharing my personal experience about this particular instrument. So coming up to your question, learning guitar really requires a lot of effort and focus with a correct approach. Well you should follow the steps given below:

As you are a beginner you may opt the wrong one so as according to my suggestion purchase a hollow acoustic guitar which has good sound. There are acoustic guitars of companies like Epiphone, Yamaha, and Hertz and if you want to expense huge sum of money then you must go with Taylor or fender. All the companies I mentioned provide best quality guitars. So choose the correct one.

Going for tuition in a guitar training center would be the best as you will get a perfect atmosphere there for learning this amazing instrument. Guitar center consist of professional guitarist who induce you in the most appropriate way step by step.

If you are having problems in finding a tuition or having difficulty in going to guitar classes switch yourself towards internet and YouTube. Practicing and learning guitar on YouTube is possible when you put your 100% effort. On YouTube you will get so many professional guitarist who provides guitars lesson for beginners and also offers lessons for advanced learning.

I would suggest you to watch beginner lesson of Nate savage, amazing guy you can also mail him and have a conversation over the things you got stucked. In my beginning period I use to watch his lesson and these  are really productive.

As well on internet there are so many online courses you can register with and continue with the lesson from beginning as according to your time. These courses also offers live interaction with guitarist and professionals which may help you in becoming a better guitar player.

Have patience and practice at least 3-4 hours daily to get a place you desire to. You need to practice those chords as much as you can. Sometimes your finger tip may cut but all you need to do is practice. Guitar and music is really vast and you will never listen from guitarist that he has nothing to learn all you will lesson is ‘I am still learning’.

Try to keep learning new things and don’t get stucked with the things you already have learned. Sometime it happens that you are playing a group of songs doesn’t matter it’s a lead or you are playing chord and you don’t improvise yourself. It’s the most basic problem which every learner faces at times of his learning phase.

guitar is really special if you will show correct approach towards it you can really become some thing else in this particular stream.
