Hi guys I just thought this was worth a mention, Iwas struggling learning to play  ,aspecially not many people into cbg in my neck of the woods I came across this site (learncigarboxguitar.com) and Ithink it cost around 25.00 pounds but for lots of lessons. It's worth a go.I atctually don't no the guy so this is not an advert plus he always has time to answer any questions.Believe me it's worth a go Mal
