New player
Hi everyone
Just started guitar! I played piano a few years ago (but had to sell piano to pay rent a few years back haha). I have a vintage v200n which I love, but I'm a bit confused where to start! I can't afford lessons (student) so ive downloaded a few apps, checked online and checked some youtube vids. Should i focus on scales? Chords? Learning songs? All three? Appreciate any advice!!

Check out a guy named Justin Sandercoe, I think that's the spelling. He does sell lessons online but you can also access his lessons for free. That'll get you started. Good luck. It's a tough but worthy journey.

If I could go back in time, I'd convince myself to get a guitar teacher. A good one can help you define your musical goals and put you on the road to reaching them. If money is an object, you can always use your body as an object. (I speak from experience.)
Also, I wish I'd spent as much time practicing scales as I did chords. I'd be able to have more fun playing with others and I wouldn't have angered so many neighbors. Whatever you play, learn to do it with your eyes shut. This will exponentially magnify both your enjoyment and your musical imagination. In fact, if I put out a guitar instruction book, it would be filled with nothing but pictures of people with closed eyes.
