I want to learn guitar, the fretted instrument with six strings.
Yeah, I play. It's not too hard once you understand that basics.
Cool, do you play acoustic or electric guitar?
I play the acoustic. Do you know how long people have had guitars?
Well the modern guitar was preceded by several other variations which date back 500 years.
Wow, that's pretty cool. I really like classical guitars too, they have nylon strings. 
Yeah that is true instead of metal strings used in acoustic and electric guitar.
Did you try taking lessons before?
