Thanks for the replies. I'm really enjoying the site so far and I have to say it's been suprising how fast I've been able get back up to speed with my old chops.

I've hardly touched a guitar at all since my son was born (6 years ago) but the muscle memory was still there and although I started off a bit slow, within a month most of the old songs had come back to me. It was really weird to just start a riff without conciously knowing how to play the end, then watch as my fingers took over!

I'm currently revising the blues content and have just statrted working through Lisa's acoustic fingerpicking fundamentals, something I've never tried before. It's easy to stay motivated at the moment as there are lots of noticable small improvements in my playing every time I pick up my guitar, just need to work out how to stay out of the rut this time!
