I am Wade from Invercargill, New Zealand. I have owned a guitar since I was 11, but struggled to find anyone to teach me. This year I really got into Spiritbox and that is made me want to learn even more. After doing some searching online I eventually found myself here! I just bought a new Electric Guitar (Ibanez Jem Jr for all those interested) so I can practice even when my flatmate is trying to sleep.
I am happy to see so many other Kiwi’s are floating around here! I have only been learning for a couple of months but I have noticed that things have been getting quicker and smoother. Hopefully oneday I will be able to play as good as Steve Vai.
Yuss! Another South Islander In fact a Southlander even!
Welcome, Wade!
Don’t be cheeky, Rob! We’ve had power south of the Waitaki for ages, well over a year at least just gotta figure out how to stop sending it all to you fancy folk up north
