I play - congrats on picking up a great skill (besides driving the X!)
I would recommend going to azchords.com and printing out some tabs for your fave songs and also visiting the music group at youtube.com - search for "guitar lessons" and a ton of vids will pop up. Look for the "split screen" vids (Marcos Farhat does some excellent close up shots of positions, fingering) and try to play along....
I play a Tele through a Marshall and also have an older Takemine acoustic for unplugged. Enjoy!
