Hi, my name is Rich. I'm retired and have been teaching myself to play guitar for last few years. I can read music and tab and play notes and several chords but am tethered to written music. Would love to be able to play by ear so I might play with my more guitar-advanced buddies. Looking forward to learning from Guitar Tricks.

Welcome to the site, Rich! We're glad to have you! Let me know if there's ever anything I can help with. You'll also find a lot of support and knowledge here in the forums.

Hi Rich, great to see you here. Playing with your buddies is a good way to practice playing by ear and I'm sure you gain much knowledge at GT, welcome!
