used to be able to play a bit as an ankle biter about 20 years ago.
Fallen a bit out of practise these days but want to re-learn as the stepson is getting a bit good and I dont want to look too stupid when the inevitable happens and i get my hands on it when drunk.
Question is, are there any websites people 'in the know' would recommend for a quick brain refresh before i start some secret practise sessions
cheers for any help

www.olga.net has lessons. pick a song, use olga, www.ultimate-guitar.com or www.guitartabs.cc to find a tab for it and play along

cheers gents
I had a little go today and was quite gutted at how much i had forgotten and how fat my fingers appear to have become.I could barely get a clean note without touching two strings at once

Also try www.guitar-pro.com and get tabs from www.mysongbook.com. They've just implemented full synthesized sounds so it doesn't sound half bad any more

www.riff-o-matic.com absolutely rocks

I've just started taking lessons having got my first ever guitar for Christmas. I can't believe how easy it seems when the teacher does it and how hard it is when I try... Or how fast I lose it again. Seems like I'll need to do a couple of hours a day just to remember what I learn each week...

But I do enjoy it, though.

I can fully recommend a guitar port from Line 6 - has full on backing tracks etc for when you want to play with "real" music! Has lessons as well

^^^ but you have to turn your computer on when you want to play guitar


Funnily enough, I'm about to put my Guitarport on Ebay. Anybody wanna buy it?
