Guitar lessons

So I took the advice here and finally had my first private lesson today. I'm really glad I did, because my teacher showed me a lot of things I was doing wrong, which is what I wanted. My cursed fat fingers will be the end of me though...just have to get used to it. Learned tablature, and I'm working on some practice notes and some tabs from "Rush - Working Man".

Not turning this in to a LJ or anything, just wanted to close my end of the thread. I saw one person say they were starting off as well. Always cool to read how others are progressing.

Thanks again for the help!

Which guitar do you have?

Squier Strat Affinity series. Didn't want to go all out and buy a Fender Stratocaster when I'm just barely learning, so did my reading and found a great beginner's guitar. Has a good feel and nice sound to it. Of course I plan on upgrading as I get better, but that's far off.

You cannot go wrong with Fender. I bought a brand new strat this last November and have been loving it since (my previous one was a beautiful transparent green, but now I have a black maple). Fender's last a very long time, as my previous one lasted me a good solid 8 years and was still kicking after seeing hell and back.

Hell, I've had my guitar on roof's overnight in the rain, bottom of a pool, and once taken completely apart as my friend wanted to figure out how it was wired. Fender's are built like you wouldn't believe. And props on the maple neck, the only rosewood neck I can stand is on the new Les Paul Standard which is narrowing in on $3000 here.
