    Kingsteven's advice is good, but for an absolute beginner I'd start with 2 things before you do anything else.

    Get a guitar tuner and learn how to use it. I still use an app called "pano tuner" which works great, u adjust the string until the needle is in the middle of the green area. Do each string this way, and never forget:

    Every
    Acid
    Dealer
    Gets
    Busted
    Eventually

    is how u remember all the strings. EADGBE

    Other thing I'd do is develop some callouses on your left hand and cut your fingernails short.

    • The idea with callouses is you keep pressing your fingers against the strings, for hours each day, until it no longer feels painful.cherub
