I've been trying to teach myself, and I'm really not getting anywhere. I don't have money for lessons, so I'm looking for an alternative to help me understand acoustic guitar basics.
I was considering getting the House of Blues Beginner Acoustic Guitar DVD (link below).

Has anyone used this? Is it any good?
Any other recommendations? Any help is appreciated.
