You might give it another try. The guitar is a great instrument. Not as great as the violin, but still terrific in its own way. Learning can be a clumsy thing, although taking lessons helps to smooth it out a lot.I wanted to learn. At best, it sounded mechanical.
I can just about guarantee if I gave you lessons, you'd be playing the guitar quite proficiently, and where it sounds musical, not mechanical, just with one month. I also provide my students a chart (in 4 colors) of each song/tune's notes - where on the guitar and when to play them. That way if you forget the song later on, you can go back to the chart, and pick back up on it, without much trouble.
If you really still want to learn, I'll give you a FREE LESSON online.
Here are some songs I teach > Purple Haze, Crossroads, Norweigen Wood , 19th Nervous Breakdown, Down By the River, and a BB King blues number I learned by ear once (never bothered to find out the name). In addition to the classic rock, I also teach fingerpicking country blues, like songs by Mississippi John Hurt, Rev. Gary Davis, and Patrick Sky.

I appreciate the offer. But I found my artistic outlet many years ago.
Plus, every musician needs fans listening. Otherwise it is just practice. I can't wait till we get back to having live music.
You found your artistic outlet? I didn't think competitive masturbation was a credit course at Alabama!
