What is the minimum duration of taking classes for playing guitar to become a pro?

I would like to emphasize the word Regular. Many beginners pick up their guitar for a couple days, than stop for a week, pick it up again, than give it a rest, and so on. This is usually caused by the fact that learning the guitar won't happen overnight, it takes weeks of practice before you even start getting a hang of how to change chords. It's all part of the learning curve, but unfortunately, many beginners lose their enthusiasm after a very short time. This has always been like this, and always will be. If you ever get discouraged or stuck at any given point, just remember that even the best guitar players were beginners at one time, everyone went through the learning curve. If you endure, you'll be left with a wonderful hobby that will be yours to keep for life, bringing you, your family and friends countless hours of joy. read less
