Welcome. I've only been playing for about a year myself and I find that GT is wonderful place. Lots and lots of expertise and opinions here. You'll find everyone very friendly and knowledgable. Apparently you and I are very similar! I am 45 and, as noted, just really started playing. Like you, I LOVE the blues and I also bought an Ibanez AF-75. Wonderful axe. Great tone. Easy to play. You'll love it.

Anyway, good luck and enjoy! To quote Eric Stratton- Rush Chairman (From Animal House) "Try not to think of it as work, the whole idea is simply to enjoy yourself." :)
