<human>: I'd like to learn to play guitar. What should I buy to get started?
<bot>: You can start by buying a guitar and some basic accessories such as a strap, picks, and strings. Once you have those basics, consider investing in an instructional book or online lessons so that you can learn the basics of how to hold the instrument and how to strum chords and other techniques. Additionally, you may want to invest in a metronome to help with timing and practice exercises.
