Started memorizing the fretboard about a week ago. I draw it all the time and look at the chords to see how they constructed them and also the scales that go along with them. haha

I should have prefaced things with (I played the horn for 8 years in school) so I know about timing 4/4 3/4 bars, staff, reading music, every good boy does fine, etc. Sorry. The toes are always keeping time inside my shoe. I never was a big 'foot tapper'. haha

Like I said, I know this thing will take practice but I wanted to get folks talking about how long they were playing before they really felt like the fundamentals were nailed, i.e. not buzzing the strings, not missing a string on the picking hand etc. You guys rock and thanks for the comments.

I'm loving playing something again, loving this site, and loving my solid top Alvarez. Them Elixirs are pricey tho! hahaha

Thanks guys,
