What schoolie said! It's similar to working out at home vs. going to a fitness center to do the same thing. It's easy to slack off at home or lose focus when having to show up somewhere at a set schedule (or teacher in the case of the guitar) will keep you regularly on task. And of course there are other benefits.

Lots of great advise....and I should take some myself, lol I mean I'm the biggest hack guitar player and I know it but I play to accompany my singing...
My biggest goal myself is intro's and any little stuff that they play that makes the song...

In case anyone is still interested, I have been to a couple lessons and what a huge difference it has made. I have already cleared up several bad habits and have been fretting chords in a better way for smoother progressions and I have ditched the pick.
My practice time is more structured now also so I am maximizing my practice time. Life is good |

Quite the opposite, I assure you. I've just grown fearful of posting. Your experience highlights the value of getting some personal, one-on-one instruction. I touted this a while back and got beat up for it by people touting the glories of online instruction. I'm a big fan of online instruction, but I also value on-on-one instruction, because that famous online instructor you're studying with can't hear you play. They can't see the issues that are holding you back. So, having someone sit in front of you every now and then is very helpful. I think of personal instructors less like teachers and more like mentors who clear up problems and point you in the right direction. Your experience sounds quite successful.
