One of the first things you'll want to do is pick up a book, though. Anything by Ernie Ball is fantastic, from personal experience. That'll start you off with some easy stuff (can you say...Hot Cross Buns?!). Then I would start learning to read tabs and pick up the DVD. The thing about starting with a DVD or a book is it's hard to get the initial discipline of sitting in front of the book and learning all the notes. I jumped in to guitar way too fast and my theory is terrible.

Just a suggestion, sorry I don't know much about the software or DVDs.
I had to beat them to death with their own shoes...

I keep meaning to pick up my guitar and learn to play it.  I bought it in 2000 with the intention of learning... and it's been in the bag since 2001.

  • My cat loves comcast
If you have comcast cable they have on demand guitar lessons in the music section. They are half-decent

Dude that's awesome.  That is the first thing I've heard of Comcast having that DirecTV doesn't.
