As time went on, I replaced the fake guitar with a real electric guitar and replaced the attempts at playing along with music with just trying to learn the songs themselves. Things didnt work out the way I wanted though, and time, school and (eventually) moving half way across the country in order to find a job all got in the way of learning the guitar.
