I was lucky in that my dad taught me how to solder when I was in 5th grade. I had to make my own cord to go play bass with a band of my friends. He showed me what to do, bought some wire and plugs at Radio Shack, handed me a 200-watt Weller sodlering gun, and I went at it.
Good solder practice (the best?) is to pull old stereos out of the garbage and try to remove and reinstall the components without burning the board. If you can do that, the touch needed on a guitar is easy. Plus, you get several hundred tries.
