I just signed up to GT. I played the bass guitar in an underground metal band for almost 10 years but we split 8 years ago. I never took any lessons so basicly I didn't know what notes I was playing. I just followed what the other guys were doing by hearing.
I always wanted to be able to play the guitar but for some reason I never got to it. A year ago I bought a cheap guitar and a small amp and the PS3 game 'Rocksmith' but that didn't do what I wanted it to do. So yesterday I signed up to GT for a full year. I already took the first lessons and learned more than I did with tha Rocksmith game in a few weeks.
I sure hope this is the beginning of something that will last a long time for me.
Cheers,
Jef
