Try getting a copy of the book 'Guitar for Dummies.' No joke. It will have you doing basic chords and reading tab in no time.

Also there is a website called wholenote.com that is great for teaching yourself.

There are a few online scale genereators and tuners out there too so you can search for them.

Learn the basic chords first like A, E, D, C, G and practice switching between them.

Most of all be patient and disciplined.

This question is asked a lot in the Music section of Entertainment and Music. and the Performing Arts section of the Arts and Humanities section. Check

i taught myself so idk srry

There will be many correct answers given so let me tell you a different route to playing good guitar.

Play bass for great guitarists.

I play guitar, but slave on the bass for really good guitarists and get free lessons as a result. Been doing this for 30 years now and the guitar came along quite nicely (as did the bass) and I didn't pay for a single lesson while getting paid to gig!

I took guitar lessons from the music pastor at my church. He really taught me a lot and he didn't charge a lot at all. It's nice to get a teacher that can really help you when you have questions. Maybe you have a friend who knows guitar and they'd be able to help get you started. If you're in high school, your school most likely has a guitar class, I know mine did. That can get you started, and what better way to spend time in school.
