He was a little of both. He played by ear and absorbed the south african folk music. But, he has been quoted saying that his guitar teacher taught him something he still does, to keep that foot tapping. So, he obviously had at least some lessons.

i think alot of time and tabs can teach you more than any teacher can

Nope. You can definitely learn a lot without a teacher, but there are also things that you need people who are better than you at the guitar to show you.

Someone once said that 'the guitar is the easiest instrument to learn how to play badly'! It's true, you can learn on your own, but you'll need some guidance sooner or later, besides, you'll improve a lot faster with a teacher! I learned more in 3 years of guitar classes than in 7 of self-tought playing! - And I thought I could play pretty good!!

funny thing is....dave is quoted somewhere as saying that his guitar teacher didn't think he would be any good at guitar.

so what you're saying is that ever single man in the world that you know as a man, you have seen their penis? that's kinda gross man, i usually take their word for it. i've heard Ranting sing and talk. HE is a man.

-and on a little more serious note, i don't know if you guys are kidding or what, but don't be disrespectful.
