    You just gotta feel the music, man.

    Drugs help too.

    And long hair.

    hi you may be able to grasp the basics in 2 months but i don’t personally think you can learn how to play in that time most have been playing for a lot years ,theres a lot of Technics and styles that are developed over years of practice do something easy to learn for your battle of the bands dont give up ,try to learn the guitar from a beginners book hanna montana isnt that hard ,im sure you could learn these easy! but in 2 months ?,there are three easy cords that can do most country songs and not knowing how to play yet you may be able to use these ! i think its a big ask of your self but hay ,never say never i encourage you to have a go at it , go to the guitar shop and ask for a book that can give you the basic cords for beginners,best of luck and please let me know how it all works out

    It depends… I guess you can learn to play the hanna montana songs in two months but I don’t think that you’ll be able to learn guitar in two months there’s just no way

    come on…don’t make the mistake of setting your sights on the greats at this point of time!

    just practice practice practice….get yourself to a fairly decent level and then think about where you want to go…

    i know from personal experience, it isn’t easy…

    why dont you start off with some free guitar videos on youtube?

    or better still with a complete package of online video tutorials such as those on ?
