I too am learning to play the guitar. Bought an Epiphone AJ-220S acoustic and subscribed to a Udemy course (£15 for the course down from £150 when I subscribed). The course is excellent with well thought out videos, good hand-outs and useful exercises.
I also bought a copy of Bert Weedon's Play in a Day.
I now have sore finger tips and a muddled brain but I am getting there. I have plenty of time to practice!
