Folks, I had an interesting conversation with a mother yesterday that made me wonder:
Lessons or self-taught on your instrument of choice?
I take lessons because:
* I like having someone there for guidance about what I am doing right and wrong
* I like music theory
* I want to be pushed a bit in a direction I would never have thought of (Jimi Hendrix for example. Who would have thought I would learn 3 of his songs.)

When I started guitar there were no guitar instructors available in my area so I was self taught. Fortunately I played trumpet and French horn so I had a head start on reading music. I used the old Mel Bay method to teach myself.
Today with an abundance of guitar instructors, some good and some not so good, I encourage any starting guitarist to take lessons. The biggest thing I noticed as I was teaching guitar that a lot of self taught guitarist had developed bad techniques. Bad habits are harder to correct then starting out with the proper techniques. YMMV
I just posted a selfie and all of the responses were get well soon!

Bad habits are harder to correct then starting out with the proper techniques. Totally agree. This is a critical point and may even make the difference between continuing or giving up. it's much better to start on the right footing.

take lessons.
find a teacher who will teach you to play the music you like.
For me, that was the hook.
50 years later, I still play almost every day.
Looking for a teacher as we speak.

If possible, Deb, maybe the kid could join the school band. I've seen some amazing results.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
