I've got everything I need at home, Clay. I'm using the books I've got at home to teach myself. You just get sore fingers. I'm limiting myself to an hour a day rather than long sessions like I did when I tried before & if I get frustrated I'm either just singing a song or having a cuppa & starting again later. Some notes sound good. Some don't. I'm also doing finger exercises as some notes can be hard on the little finger of your fretting hand.
