Once you learn that you are home free and you can become and advanced guitar virtuoso, no problems.
I also recommend getting a POD. Its made by Line-6 and has a shitload of different sounds and effects for your guitar. Can be played thru headphones or an amp.

And dont be cheap when buying your first guitar. You may think, I just want something to learn on, so I'll buy a cheap $150 guitar. Well, you get what you pay for, and most likely you'll wind up with an instrument that is so cheaply put together that its impossible to learn on.

Spend the money and buy a nice Ibanez, Jackson, Carvin, Washburn, or Gibson. Lots of other nice guitars out there but these are the most popular brands and you should be able to find one easily. Just go to a good guitar store, ask for a salesman and tell him you're learning and you want a good instrument that you can learn on and also play with for a few years.
