I've just started guitar lessons.
I heard that it takes about 6months to about a year to get the basics under your belt.
The only reason why I'd like to learn an instrument is to get composing. I do occasionally get melodies in my head and it drives me crazy that I can't write or document them.
So approximately how long do you reckon it takes to get good enough on an instrument to start composing songs?
I already know how to read/write sheet music (I'm not good at it but I can do it. Very slowly).
