What I thought was late into the pandemic I picked up the guitar and any research I did pointed to Justinguitar, well here I am 16 months since buying my first guitar and I’m starting to feel like I’ve made some decent progress.
It is so nice going back to things that seemed impossible and picking them up in no time.
A bit about me, I enjoy mountain biking, consuming guitar-related content on Youtube, and woodworking. Trying to make music out of something made of wood has been a great cross-pollination of two hobbies. My Harmony H1260 guitar is actually from 1968, and was the same model Jimmy Page used to record Stairway. I was able to leverage my woodworking experience to reset the neck to unlock the rest of the fretboard on this instrument. I hope to record a little medley of the Zeppelin tunes I’ve learned so far, they are by far the largest driving force in pushing me towards guitar.
I look forward to this great community, though I will grieve for the old forum and that aesthetic, most of my time online is spent on reddit/Youtube, and the old Justinguitar forum definitely reminded me of a bygone era of internet forums.
