Depends on what you want to accomplish(i.e. style of music you wish to play), and what you would consider "good". I played for a couple years before I became what I considered to be "good". Actually with a little hard work and maybe some tutoring, most anyone can pick up the basics in a few weeks, and be able to strum a song or pick a melody in such a way that they would probably be recognizeable.
I would recommend a guitar teacher if you can swing it. I am, for the most part, self taught, but always learned the most when playing with someone else.
