I learned when I was like 12-13 by taking music lessons.
Like november said, ultimate-guitar is very useful when learning specific songs! Also Songsterr.com is a good website, it shows you the tabs along the music so it's very entertaining.
My first guitar was a random acoustic one

Then I got an Ibanez that was some sort of 'starter kit', it came with a little amp, headphones, a tuner, etc.
Then, some years later, I got a Schecter Synyster Custom
I don't really play that much anymore 'cause I don't have the time but I appreciate playing here and there, remembering the times when I was actually good, lmao.
