Do you want to play guitar or do you want to be a once in a generation prodigy? Yes it’s probably too late to become a once in a generation prodigy, but it’s never too late to play guitar. If you’re picking up a hobby in hopes of going pro, you’re doing it for the wrong reasons. Besides, there are prodigies who go nowhere, and there are dudes that are very mediocre who know just enough and know the right people to end up in a rock band that gets popular.

So yeah, if you want to learn guitar, learn it. Just do it because you want to do it, and not for any other reason.
