i play guitar, and i feel(this is just my opinion..) that if you are truly committed to learning the guitar, lessons are a good idea... at least for little while... lessons will teach you fundamental techniques, that you may not learn as easily, on your own.. i am 40.. i have played guitar sine the age of 8. i took lessons for 6 months... i helped me with chords, tuning, and proper finger positioning.. look at one of your local guitar shops... they are affordable..  face it.. you cant play songs, if you dont know chords, and notes.. even if you play by ear..  good luck..... maybe we will all hear you someday..
