I play guitar. Been playing for 3 years now and picking up the chords were quite easy. I found bar cords really hard!!!It took me about a month to learn all my chords properly.
Its just practice though!!

i have been playing for 3 years i have always had an ear for music though as i played the piano from the age of 10, im 23 now, i can hear a tune and 5 mins later play it to a resonable extent. I would say you will be playing songs within a week, its easy to play cords just copy the pictures, lol

I can play from ear now too. Once chords are out the way you will hit the scales. Thats when everything comes together!
