Hi,
When there is a will, there is a way. As long as you determine and persevere to learn playing guitar. I believe you can do it. For me, i have some basic back to my secondary school time and stopped playing for about 4-5 years time.
And one day, i felt so eager to play back one of my favorite spanish song and so i pick up the guitar again and try on my own. and now, i can play the song and enjoy it!!
You can do it. Happy trying!
