I am from the western edge of Shenandoah Valley in Virginia. It is nice to be able to play by ear but I cannot do that to this day. I started playing bass when I was 14 years old and I am now 53 so I gave up hope on that long ago but I certainly did not let it stop me. You have a nice advantage today that I did not have in the 60's when I started and that is the enormous data base of "tabs" out there that can help you learn just about any song you desire.
