is it too late for me to start playing the electric guitar?

I really want to learn how to play guitar. some people told me i’m too old to start playing and that i should’ve taken lessons when i was younger to really master the guitar. i’m 13 years old, female and i’m wondering if its not too late to start playing and how long it would take for me to master the basics and be good enough to start performing.

You are certainly too old to learn to play anything if you are now on your deathbed with less than a week to live. At age 13 you are at a great age to learn an instrument.

I recommend you first learn on an acoustic guitar rather than an electric because you don’t need an amplifier with all its bells and whistles make you think you can play better than you would be doing. By learning on an acoustic you will develop good study and practice habits, get your calluses grown faster, and have the portability of an instrument that you can take almost anywhere.

I first learned to play on an acoustic at the old age of 16 years so you can get started now. I am still playing everyday and I’m old enough to be your grandpa.
