Wright, I'm 51 and been playin' acoustic for 30 yrs. I just bought a Strat last march and decided to learn electric lead blues ( out of the blue). I have no special training, not gifted and can't read tabs or music. I'm also not all that bright. But if ya keep on pluggin' it will come. Listen to Jam tracks, burn the beat and style you want in your head, for get your inhibitions and when it Quacks learn from it. Most everything I learn comes from makin' mistakes. Play with her and laugh with her and learn with her. You'll both be the better for it. Friz
