Hi mid 50's here, never picked up guitar until 2yrs ago. Did some research on the best way to learn online and here I am. I've made my way through the fundamentals 1&2 and heading into the Blues lessons. I'll go slow time here as I really need to go back and spend time on basic songs to get better with the basics of keeping good rhythm and chord changes.

I've found GT a great resource for practicing particularly being able to play along with their lessons, slow it down etc. Currently I have a Vox stomplab modelling processor and plugged into that and my PC or tab, and headphones, I can get good quality practice in and not annoy anybody :-)

Anyhow, thanks Stephen and William for sharing your posts on the backing tracks and I have had look at the Spider Amp. Even more great tools to work with, but I'll stay away from that amp for now as I'll get distracted!

Cheers
