You can practise guitar quietly in an HDB flat by strumming softly with your thumb, doing silent fret-hand chord drills, using a cheap soundhole cover or string mute, and keeping louder practice before 9pm. A gently played acoustic is quieter than a TV — noise is the most over-feared obstacle in beginner guitar.
No — you are not too old to learn guitar. Adults start successfully at 30, 40, 50, 60 and beyond. The brain keeps forming new connections for life, so what matters far more than age is a comfortable guitar, short regular practice, and a little guidance through the first month.
Most beginners can go from zero experience to jamming simple songs with others in around six months with 15–30 minutes of daily practice. The first two months build calluses and basic chord shapes; month three brings a plateau; months four to six add strumming, full songs, and playing in time with others. Consistency matters far more than natural talent.
The 6 open chords every beginner should learn first are Em, G, C, D, A, and Am. Together they cover the vast majority of popular songs across pop, folk, worship, Mandopop, and Cantopop. Each chord is playable within your first few weeks and the transitions between them form the building blocks of almost all beginner-friendly repertoire.
