Just wanted to introduce myself. I've wanted to learn how to play the Guitar since my early 20's, but never seemed to have the time, or money. Life kept getting in the way. A trip through Memphis, and the Gibson factory last year, reignited my interest.

Last October I attended a large Guitar show in Dallas with my son, who plays, and got the bug. Bought a 1989 Epiphone Sheraton and a used Vox VT30 amp. I tried to learn on my own, and did take a couple of lessons, but they didn't seem to catch. After reading an article on the "Best Online Guitar Lessons" at EquipBoard.com, I decided that Guitar Tricks sounded like the best option for me. Very anxious to get started with the Guitar Fundamentals Level One.

My biggest concern, now at 74, is that I don't have the dexterity in my hands that I used to. At least I have plenty of time to practice.

Thanks for listening,


Otto...
