man i wish i started playing when i was nine. and yes your fingers will hurt, its normal so don't start a topic about calluses or your fingertips hurting lol.  other than that ask away about anything that pops into your head.

in about a month you will have things that sort of kind of resemble calluses lol you don't get real tough calluses for a while.  like i can play for about 12 hours now before my fingers start hurting.  but that took a while. mostly cause i used to play about 8 hours a day over the summer lol
