Hi Chris, always a pleasure to welcome another Old Dog into the fold

Older guitar students - can 'old dogs' learn new tricks?

In the original JustinGuitar Forum, many ‘mature’ beginner guitarists would arrive with a measure of doubt. Doubt that they could learn to play guitar. Doubt that they were not making a mistake. Doubt that anyone else of ‘mature years’ was doing anything as daft as they were in dreaming of becoming a guitar player. And so a discussion started to test the waters of ‘who else is out there like me’? Lo and behold … tens, dozens, scores, nay hundreds of old dogs made themselves known. And so t…

About a month ago, I upgraded my guitar and now I practice every day. I have stopped trying to learn too quickly, and am sticking to the courses.

Hi Chris, welcome to the community. Just add “Have Fun and Play Songs” to the list above and you will have the checklist for a lifetime of rewarding guitar learning and fun.

Hey Chris

Welcome to the community. You’ve definitely not started too late. I started when I was about your age and now, some 13 years later I’ve played over 100 open mics and music is now a big part of my lifestyle. The rewards are just fabulous. Hang in there, and you’ll be amazed at what you can do in only a relatively short time.

Welcome Chris and well done. Keep with it, especially on the days when you think all is lost. The guitar, I have found, has a lovely was of rewarding you for your continued efforts when you least expect it.

[amandaw57]

Great choice I love AC-DC and Angus I have a black SG also keep rocking
