I've been playing for 3-4 years, self taught. Never had a lesson in my life.
I practice almost daily, and i've got a few pretty impressive songs under wraps. I cant play from music really, I gotta learn stuff and play by heart, which Is why it takes me so long to make progress.
This is probably one of the most impressive songs I can play, which I learned pretty early on, but is still my best. I normally play it around 4 times as fast though. Clicky
I own a rather pathetic electric, but im more of an acoustic person, so much so that I havent used a plectrum in over a year.
And I can play House of the Rising Sun elagto! One of my all-time favourites to play. It's relatively easy once its in your head, based around simple chords and a plucking pattern, and its really relaxing for player and listener.
