There is no time better than right now to be a beginner guitar player.  The quality you can get from a $200 Squier guitar now is light years beyond what you'd get more than 20 years ago.

And youtube almost makes taking lessons absolete.  You can find thousands of beginner videos and how to play videos.

I'm serious, if you ever really wanted to to do it should give it a try.  We need more guitar players!!! 

The more people picking up instruments rather than mumble rapping over sampled beats the better.  Join the club!

Ya know, my oldest daughter is looking into playing. We got her a cheapy acoustic....and she's dying to learn. We tried to get lessons going, but Covid I guess....so we're gonna put her on YouTube for starters. You're right, I should just sit down with her and get going. I've got an old 5 string I never learned either. I need to just learn the guitar and get with the banjo later. I actually learned some chords on it, but those finger rolls are tough on a beginner, and I lost interest. By God, I'm gonna do it. If I pick it up, I'll invest in an electric.
