Almost 40
Good evening folks,
I turn 40 next month so instead of a motorcycle, my mid-life crisis consists of a Takamine Acoustic that am going to try and learn. It was an early B'day/Father's day gift from my wife and kids.
I played Trumpet and Piano growing up so reading music is ok, put figuring out how to get my head to tell my fingers what to do should be interesting.
I look forward to devouring this site for help and info.
Darren

Well it's a whole lot cheaper than a Harley and almost as much fun. Welcome.

Great to hear from you. I turn 40 next month too and have just taken up the guitar recently (are we mad or what?)
Anyway, hope you enjoy the forum.
Good luck
