How do i play acoustic guitar, self taught? any help?
I know it sounds like a stupid question, because learning is really hard.
i already play flute and clarinet, flute = grade 6, clarinet=grade 7
but i want to learn acoustic guitar.
i got a guitar for xmas, and seeing as i do so much already i think it's unfair to get my parents to pay for more music lessons and i cannot afford them myself.
(i'm 15 btw)
where do i start?
what types of things do i need to know?
i know a lot of theory because of my flute and clarinet work
and ive learnt some from a book for guitar specialized stuff.
but is there anything you could teach me now?
i have a book which has loads of stuff but it is a bit too hard to grasp.
i know about 8 chords self-taught
what are the string notes?
any advice would be so helpful
best answer will be picked 
by string notes do you mean an open string in which case it is EADGBE (thickest to thinnest)
what i did was find simple tabs for songs that i liked then worked from there eg. Good riddance (time of your life) by green day is a fairly easy guitar song
google ultimate guitar and use that website for tabs, it has star ratings etc.
you should also try learning scales as they will become a basis for most things later on like soloing if you go to electric 
tablature is a lot easier than standard notation for guitar, so you should probably start there
eg
E----------------------------------------9---------6-----
B--------------------------------------------------6-----
G-------------------------------2-----------------6-------
D----------------------3--------------------------6-----
A-------------5---------------------------------- 6-----
E----0------------------------------------------6-------
sorry the 6's are a bit wobbly :S
here is a tab- it shows the 6 strings of a guitar. 0 means play an open string, 5 means 5 th fret, 3 means 3rd etc. if the notes are all above each other you play them at the same time(mainly chords etc.)
you should also try to learn the basics such as tuning and stuff but there are plenty of internet tutorials to help you there
i'm guessing your fairly musical alreay so the guitar should come fairly easily, i used to play clarinet (only grade 3) and i taught miself bass which is similar been playing for just over 7 months and gettin pretty good now
in short, choose bands that you like and work from there! hope i helped!
