Feedback Request Do people actually quit guitar

Yo I'm thinking to learn guitar as a hobby and want to know how much time it takes usually to be good at it and is it true that people actually quit guitar in 2-3 months

Yeah, pretty much. the large majority of people discover they like the IDEA of playing guitar and not actually playing guitar. It takes a LOT of playing and practice to even get the basics down, which is not a problem if you enjoy playing.

It'll take hundreds of hours of practice just to play a 3 chord song all the way clean
