Nice one fendermojoman:.

I'd like to append my answer to include finally learning to read music.

I'll chime in here for the beginners. Learn to read as you learn to play. Since you don't know how to do much when you start, the note reading isn't very onerous & will progress with you.

It gives you more flexibility & awareness of music in general.

That's why I like method books without TAB.
