How hard is it to learn to play the electric guitar?
Discussion
Ok, last dumb question (for tonight) before I wander off and do somethnig else.
Of all the instruments out there, I've always fancied playing the electric guitar. But only if I could do it fairly well and rock along to Sultans of Swing or something.
So how hard is it? Am I looking at years of Tibeten Monkesque dedication, or is it fairly easy to pick up?
It always looks really difficult to me, what with different strings to pluck and all that finger on the board stuff, and you can't see the keys.
Genuine question by the way, I'm really interested to know.

If you want to play anywhere near MK then yes, many years of practice, and even then unlikely you would get his style.
To learn enough to turn your amp to dirty and play along to rock type stuff with reasonable accuracy then a few years. Unless you're willing to practice an awful lot.
The latter, rather than the former. To learn enough to turn your amp to dirty and play along to rock type stuff with reasonable accuracy then a few years. Unless you're willing to practice an awful lot.
