Learning to play guitar has to be one of life's achievements if accomplished.
From the moment you learn your first finger plucks of a Rolling Stones number to the end product of sitting round a fire strumming Kumbaya with your friends, you can take pride that you really have made a milestone in your life.
Not only because you have learned a skill but you have had the motivation and made a leap in self improvement because of it.
Guitar playing for millions of people is basically playing 'air guitar' wildly in front of the telly when Guns and Roses come on.
Whilst for the person who has actually taken the time to learn this art, it is an art to show off to their friends for looks of sheer admiration.
For the accomplished player there is no feeling in the world to replace the one where they know the people around them have nothing but sheer admiration for them and their playing.
Any occasion or just for yourself, the guitar is an instrument to be enjoyed, even to be upheld as some spiritual light or celestial being.
There are various forms of guitar playing from acoustic to electric to finger plucking, classical to rock, all with their own unique form of sound, the choice is yours to pursue and the choice of teacher will help you achieve your own uniqueness as the greats of their profession have.
Just for pure self gratification you will never beat learning to play the guitar, and the best bit of all is...
anyone can learn.
