So hi, I am Kass and I am Aussie :)


As a teenager I was reasonably good on a piano but struggled with big chords because I have smallish hands and what I loveingly call stumpy boy fingers. I never got far with guitar for that reason. I am able to read music to an extent - as with anything, the more you practice that, the better you get!


However, after one heck of a crappy year or so, I decided I was not going to be beaten and I bought a guitar.


I got a 3/4 Traveller size - it's a Yamaha APTX2 and I absolutely love it. 


So far I am doing the Fundamentals 1 with Anders and I have to say he's a great teacher - I was trying to teahc myself through a book and YouTube but it wasn't working for me. I had a really good day yesterday and felt like I was doing super well, until today when I got to the C and D major chords - holy heck they are hard!!!


So anyway, HI - if there are others in Brisbane or even around Australia on here, I'd love to wave hello.


Music tastes are somewhat varied:


- devoted Pearl Jam fan and 10 Club member
- Committed Swiftie
- haven't missed a Kylie Minogue tour in Australia...ever
- can listen to YoYo Ma play Bach on the cello all day long
- love classical ballet music
- really like singer/songwriters and those who can strip back big songs to a single instrument and make it brilliant


 


Have a great weekend, everyone!


Kass
