Congratulations Fretsource and many thanks for the lessons and informative posts. The 'history of the guitar' piece was very interesting, looking forward to reading the rest over the next day or two.
Tekker and Fretsource on the same day! Kirk and Clancy you really are spoiling us. Thanks.

Never be unsure of what you can't play, be sure of what you can.

Yes, we are spoiled indeed. Thanks, Fretsource, for your generous contribution and for agreeing to compiling it all in your own forum. This site is growing in leaps and bounds!

Thanks and appreciation to both Fretsource and Tekker  . My brain is currently in meltdown mode after reading the lessons. I'm not used to theory, but my goodness I loved it  .

Thanks everyone. It's a real pleasure and privilege to be associated with this great site. I hope my lessons will be useful or interesting, or at least, readable (I'm still finding typos).
I look forward to continuing sharing with you what I know and learning from you what I don't.
Cheers -
