Future

Where can you go from here? One of your options is to find a local guitar teacher or guitar playing friend. It can be beneficial to have another musician listen to your playing to see if you're playing the right/wrong notes. You could search for songs on Ultimate Guitar. This route is great if you like a particular artist or genre. YouTube also has a number of useful channels dedicated to teaching guitar. Whatever your future looks like, may it be filled with music.
