    Check out Guitar Noise for both beginner songs and other lessons. Keep practicing and play with other people when you can. Learning to read music can help greatly if you take the time to do it.

    some beginner songs to look at

    -Black sabbath-Iron Man
    AC/DC back in black
    Greenday-Brainstew
    Nirvana-Smells liek teen spirit
    james bond theme
    mission impossible theme
    red hot chilli peppers-californication

    to improve playing guitar i would say to learn songs. learning new songs will expose you to try new things with your fingers and it becomes ingrained little by little the more songs you play

    if you get frustrated with that
    pick a technique you want to improve on
    hammer on,pull off,tapping,bend,vibrato and look for exercise for each one and try doing that

    i suck at reading music sheet so i been learning with tabs as well

    here are some resources you can learn stuff from
    http://justinguitar.com/ exposes you to basics and gives you a general idea how to approach playing guitar

    ultimate-guitar.com best website for everything
    tabs,lessons,videos,forums if you ever get stuck or need guidance

    if you want to go crazy with it look at steve vai 10 hour workout many exercises the man used to do that for hours and he is and insane player

    hopefully that helps you out

    What I did was scour the internet for weeks looking for the right teacher lol, I finally came across http://mrzip.biz/nc and really didn’t want it at first but since 2 of my friends have already got it I said the heck with it and bought it. It is really what helped my skills start increasing again and I hope it does the same for you.
