    Yes, I taught myself when I was 18 you just need to put in a lot of hours.

    Yeah, at any age, I think being good is possible. All you gotta do is practice, and make sure you’re giving it your all.

  3. Jan says:

    Sure, if you have some aptitude and practice hard, you can become a very good player in a couple of years. Chuck Berry didn’t start playing until his teens either and he became a band leader at 26 years of age.

    No problem actually. I’ve also learned electric guitar when i’m 19,it’s been a year now and i can play some songs pretty good.i’ve play a bit of blues,metal and rock. just learn the BASIC,scales and put a lot of practice,you’ll be good i’m sure.but of course it takes time to progress so you need to be patience. plus,you can watch lots of video tutorials on youtube.they pretty help.
