Is it hard to learn to play the electric guitar by myself ??? Denso-GS
Not at all, I taught myself the basics when i was six years old. The only thing thats difficult is taking the time to practice.
Learn acoustic before electric.
You should learn all the chords and learn how to change chords quickly, then move onto electric.
Its best to start with acoustic, cos acoustics are generally cheaper, so if you drop out its not as much of a loss, and in my experience the strings are harder to push down and strum, so you should build up strength.
If you enjoy acoustic, move onto electric. I would recommend an ESP guitar, theyre awesome.
I'm sort of self taught, but a mate has helped me out with alot of stuff, but being totally delf taught shouldnt be that bad.

you learn how to play an electric guitar on an acoustic guitar.

plus the strings on an acoustic are generally higher on the neck, and the strings are tougher, which makes it an easier transition from acoustic to electricLearn acoustic before electric.

dont listen to the people sayng you can't learn on your own. Im self-taught with a little help here and there from experienced guitarists/musicians.
if you have the heart to want to play, and enjoy it, you will learn. pratice daily and make sure you learn good playing habits before you settle into your own style. this is important.

This. I'm self taught also, with a bit of help here and there. But like Martyr said, once you do get going, don't let bad habits form.
