Oooh yeah.
I've been dabbling on guitar for almost 20 years. (#%&*, how did that happen???) and can play a few nice melodies. It's fun and has helped get me laid.
But I never took lessons, so I've always had my left hand in what I now know is a wrong position. This is now greatly limiting my opportunity to progress. I can either go back to beginner level and get it right, or mess around where I am for fun. I do the latter. This isn't what I do for a living, just for fun.
So my two cents is, if you're starting out, get at least a few lessons to make sure you start right.
My 10,000 hours was focused of philosophising, and I'm good enough at that to earn a living.
