Hi guys, I guess I am in the right place. I took a few guitar lessons when I was 14. My instructor taught Mel Bay Classical Method. I lost interest pretty quickly. However all through my life I have wanted to play music. I have spent a small fortune on musical instruments, 3 keyboards, flutes and recorders, still have my autoharp and never had any success. At 64 the urge to make music is as strong as ever. I am retired now with lots of time and more dollars than sense to put into my pursuits. I saw a great buy on a guitar amd bought it, went out and bought a good amp and subscribed to Guitar Tricks. So now, in spite of bruised fingertips, I am going to keep on learning guitar till I make it or die trying. Since learning guitar is truly a never ending process (always one more song to learn), looks like I will die happy, trying.
