Answer 3

There's no exact answer to the first part of your question since being able to fully master the guitar is endless. But I've only been playing for 2 1/2 years and have had my electric for...a year or so. I started on acoustic. I take lessons.

Answer 4

I started lessions when I was 12 years old.  I am now 52, play everyday and will soon be good enough to be called a beginner.  I have had mu current guitar for 30 years.  I love it and when I play out everyone says what an old axe man, it is cool.  To play well takes years man, so stay with it.

Answer 6

I tought my self to play guitar. I've had my guitar for about 2 years and I use tabs. THey're pages on the internet that show you six strings and what fret to put you finger on. The only problem is you have to read them upside down! But they are a great way to learn and help a lot

Answer 7

I started as a rhythm guitarist, but had a lot of help.  That was the era called the British Invasion.  Everyone wanted to play guitar.  I was pretty proficient within several months.  Been playing since the 60s.
