Hello to everyone thought it was time to introduce myself, my name is Chris and I’m 66 years old and currently living in Morecambe, Lancashire, on the West coast of UK.
Just retired and enjoying not doing the grind any more.
I have always wanted to learn music in particular guitar, I am registered blind although I do have some sight, learning music has always been difficult, now tech is allowing me access to this type of material, although from an eyesight point of view I will be slow, I will give it my all…and looking forward to the journey.
My gear:
Epiphone 59 les paul in conjuction with Gibson with a 5watt Marshall valve amp.
Last Friday I bought a Epiphone Hummingbird Masterbuilt accoustic to replace a cheap dreadnaught which was hard to play. I have to say I love the Hummingbird it’s great.
Currently coming to the end of Grade 1 of JG online course.
Started Justin’s solo Blues Course.
Started Justin’s Strumming SOS Course.
so plenty to keep me busy!!!
Nice to meet you all and see you around in forums/clubs.
Hello again Chris thanks for the intro. Make the most of this community on your journey. Many helpful folks to provide advice, guidance and support. Enjoy the ride.
I’m just up the road from you in Kendal and I’m working on the Blimm Course too, sure we’ll hear a lot from each other as the months tick by. So let’s enjoy the journey.
Hi Chris, I’ve been picking up a guitar and trying to master it for probably near 10 years but if I had to label myself I’d say I was an average grade beginner knocking on the door of maybe an intermediate student. It’s a case of my desire seems to exceed my capability.
