Looks like I'm one of the older guys here - 70. I had never had a guitar in my hands until 1 month ago. I haven't gotten very far but the interest is there. Simply put, I haven't been practicing much and it shows.

Reading this thread has been just what I needed. I'm encouraged and reminded that practice is key. I have to remember that it's a matter of time until my fingers start finding their way by themselves and that excuses don't help.

I'll be returning here whenever I feel the need to reboot.
