[EugeneSmasher]

I'm mostly self-taught on both acoustic and electric guitar but I've had coaching from other guitarists along the way, so I can't say I'm completely self-taught.

Self taught when there was no Internet. Learn from friends jamming at void decks, waiting for Police to come take down our IC numbers.

I miss seeing youths jamming under the void decks for a many years now... somehow, these days, the neighbours complain about everything from youths playing guitars, to youths playing sepaktakraw, to youths chit chatting, to youths studying!! (yup... studying under the void deck has also turned sinful these days, duh!)...

Self taught theory thanks to a $2.50 chord book I bought at the Music Bookshop at Bras Basah...

Self taught practical thanks to the void deck/lepakz at school canteen sessions...

[RayKnight]

I dunno but...ummm...I am "self-taught". I don't have a teacher or anything.

 

[parker]

Me too. Taught myself to play but I really wished I know more about theory. It would be so much more helpful. Too bad I'm too lazy to bother learning the stuff
