Well spoke with my friend some more at the party he was throwing tonight and he showed me his many guitars and his keyboards and other cool studio gadgets. He said he wants to cover the basics on a piano as its easier to learn it on that, then just apply it to the guitar. Also showed me a bunch of his music books hes gonna let me borrow to read and go through. Also said a cool thing to do is once you start thinking your getting the hang of it, hes got some really cool recording software and equipment, he wants to record me playing and just put it on a MP3 so we can play it back and I can hear how it actually sounds, not just how I THINK it sounds when I am playing it. All in all I'm hella stoked!
