Hello all at Guitar Tricks, Im Dave, 62, from the uk, started out with Lisa on the guitar fundamentals, I have some limited knowledge of guitar but its such a long time ago when i was at school, but hey, its coming back.

I'm gearing up for my retirement and would love to master/ learn this lovely sounding instrument, winter is fast approaching so I won't be out on my Harley, instead it's lots of practice.

Great site with very approachable lessons in nice segments, hope to stay with it this time, but oooh my fingers hurt, ah well back to it. feeling good, Thankyou

Fellow UK oldie here and in the same boat, trying to get me head around cord changes, strumming, all whilst looking out the window...lol...

All in a days frustration and joys, we will get there in the end, the cold winter nights and a log fire whilst playing the blues...lol...

Hey Steve and Dave, also from the UK. I am 61 and in a similar boat! It would be great if there were some of us on this site that lived closeby to get together and jam! Anyone live near Eastbourne???

Good luck guys! This is a great site.

Hi Dave, I'm Dave , too, looks like I am paddling that boat with you, except that I have been retired for a while, and I am bored to tears with being bored to tears. Just getting back into guitar after about a 50 years , trying to alleviate the boredom
