Hey, guys! I am starting again at 52. I took lessons as a kid, and tried to teach myself out of a book in my 20's. Neither were what I would call successful experiences. Both were on acoustics, and I always had trouble with the neck size and string height (I didn't know then that this was adjustable!).

I learned banjo in my 40's, and had much more success due to the smaller neck and easier playability. I also learned to read tab during that time.

I have recently come into possession of a gorgeous blue flametop Epiphone Les Paul and that has reignited the passion to learn to play blues guitar. So.............I'm off to mark another item off of the "Bucket List". I look forward to learning a lot, and one thing that I have learned thus far in life is that the JOURNEY is more important than the destination!
