Another Newbie Old But Still A Newbie!

Just wanted to say hello to everyone on this great forum you have here. I just got back to starting playing guitar after about 36 yrs. not that i was any good before. I started taking lessons in 1969 until My Uncle Sam decided to give me a free tour of SouthEast Asia and that ended my guitar playing until now.I bought a Taylor Big Baby guitar and have been reading the free lesssons here and learning alot. I hope I won't be a pain asking to many question and beleive me I'll have some. Again Thanks for a great site!!!

Gene
