Another one!
Why hello there. I'm Albin. I'm 14 years old and I'm from Sweden. I started playing guitar about..3 weeks ago. I'm trying to learn things over the internet and so far it's going great. I'm playing the acoustic guitar but I'm planning on getting an electric one too once I get better. I have quite a wide music interest but I mainly listen to punk. I've always wanted to play guitar, but never really got to it. But now, I decided to buy me a guitar and actually start playing. So, hta's me basically. Yep
A big welcome from the Netherlands Albin!

Welcome from Switzerland Albin!
Great to hear you are starting out on your guitar playing career.
I reckon that Neil is a secret Punk player when we are all tucked away in bed so let's see if you can get some songs with a real attitude out of him!
Congratulations on your English... it's excellent!
Have fun
Chris

Hello Albin,
Glad you chose the guitar and this site. I can relate to you, because I started playing at about your age. Punk was in it's infancy then, and I wasn't a huge fan of all the music, but there are certain songs by The Clash, Iggy Pop, Patti Smith, and others that I liked back then and enjoy even more (can you believe that?) today. One thing that I have learned on this musical journey is that anything you learn from one type of music is transferable to other types of music. I'm not sure how many punk lessons are on this site, but you will find everything you need here to get you started rolling down that road. Enjoy your journey!

PS If you nominate the song Should I Stay or Should I Go by The Clash in the Recommend Lesson area, I will vote for it. I think that the way the tempo changes mid song would make it a worthy addition . . . . just a thought.

Hey Albin, Great to see you on here learning guitar. It is really great that you are starting at age 14! I started at 13 and to be honest, a lot of what I learned back then I still remember, and it is the best age to develop muscular co-ordination of your fingers and hands, the stuff you do now will stick with you for life. Follow Neil's advice closely and you will be alright. I hope you end up with a true passion for guitar. Beaker.
