How long has been playing ?       Be proud !


I remember when I first started out  , in the seventies  .  I played for several years  , got pretty good  in a short time  .  For some reason , I lost interest , had other things going on  ?   My guitar hardly ever came out of the case for sooooo long.  Started playing every day a couple of years ago .   I  feel like I've  missed out on something  ,   putting in such a lame effort  ,  or not playing at all over  the years .  I still have a  nice Fender acoustic from the seventies that I have hung on to  and   , in the last  two years added  six more guitars and a mandolin to the collection.  I really enjoying playing again !

He started teaching himself while in his teens.  Pretty amazing how his playing has progressed.

Hey Jeff, glad to hear picking a again.  Kinda like soup for the soul eh?
