Just bought my first guitar and a book "Guitar For Dummies". Know absolutely nothing about guitar plating. Any advise would be appreciated. But remember, I know absolutely nothing. Thanks for any help

Play along to whatever you hear on the radio, play along to whatever you hear on TV, heck, take in into the bathroom and check the acoustics while you sit!

start with basic rythym execises in 4/4 timing. Learn the notes along the top sring,from the open 'E' all the way upto the twelth fret (usually marked with a double dot ) which is another 'E' an octave higher.
(e,f,fsharp,g,gsharp,a,asharp,b,c,csharp,d,dsharp,e)
then learn 'bar-chords' and use them for your starting rythym exercises.
eg. A 'G' barc ...[text shortened]... instaed of a 'G'.
if you have any other specific questions dont hesitate to ask.
