    Well traditional Irish songs= a few chords with a really good voice to carry you so that's easily done. Plus, beginners electric and beginners acoustic are pretty much the same thing, so ye could probably be taught by the same person if ye're both new to it. I'd offer my services (put my 2/3s of a BEd to good use ;)) but I'm not going to be in Limerick 'til next year.

    If either of ye are from Clare though, I'd be more than happy to arrange something over the summer. Drop me a PM if this applies to either of ye :D

    (Note: I'm not a pro or anything like that, just your basic guitarist looking to help some newbies, so this isn't really an ad or anything. Just looking to help(covering my ass :)))

    As D4RK Onion says if you're starting from scratch you basically need to learn the same stuff whether you're playing electric or trad - chords, rhythm, scales, stuff like that. I'd happily give either of ye some lessons over the summer if you're interested.

    I don't play electric but I play everything from rock to ballads on the acoustic guitar (been playing for about 7 years on and off) I'm not a pro either, but my price would reflect that :) I live in Killaloe but I'll be in UL on a regular basis finishing my MA Thesis so could meet up in either of those places. Send me a PM if you're interested anyway.
