I have seen a lot of posts that are against learning guitar from books or lessons online. I have been playing for about 5 years and can play along with most anything people play, I was self taught minus about a month of formal training. I think if you have the desire and work ethic, there is nothing wrong with this. Learning from a teacher is great, but only to learn the basics. A single teacher will teach you their style of playing and licks and you can get caught up in that trend. Once you learn scales, chords, etc it will be up to you to progress. Learning to read music is a great thing also if you want to see a piece of music and being playing it. But learning to read music is also something that can be learned on your own. Anyone have any feelings about this?
