Welcome Simon!
I didn't think I had any musical ability either. I never learned an instrument when I was little and thought that's the only way anyone can truly learn it. I was wrong! I didn't pick up an instrument until this guitar at beginning of July and I've learned so much since then. You will surprise yourself! I'm glad you will stick with it; it is so rewarding and therapeutic.
