    congrats, Cadgirl! Its funny how my recent journey reflects yours. all my friends from back in the day are scattered or sadly no longer with us. I dabbled and put the guitar away for years, forgetting 90 percent of what I thought I knew. Finding tac is somewhat like finding a new group of supportive friends. My goals are feelling like Im really playing especially independent thumb and melody combos. Im playing everyday and have a guitar way out of my league but that helps me commit. Thanks for being such a great contributing member and for all your positive inputs. Keep on picking!

    TOC,of all the things you said in your great post the last sentence really came through, “we are here to PLAY The guitar” . I’ve always thought of it as a daunting challenge that I was not really worthy of. Guess that’s why I was a dabbler at most. Now I’m INTO it!😀😎🥸

    Tacers do have a tendency to think alike at least at times

    Of course you would be doing her a favor in that she could share the joy you would get by giving the new guitar a loving home. In addition she would not have worry about how well the money was spent.

    thank you, Bill. Not only well stated but also giving me another reason to listen to those who are performing. It is true that some have a long way to go but are doing their best and need our encouragement. Some are really advanced musicians and for that reason alone they are worth listening to.Your two cents was worth many times that!

    I think I’m too afraid of what I will hear. I’m going to work on it (honest)

    TOC, as usual you have nailed it and summed up the essence of how many of us often feel.for me when I get to monotoning I’m going to try to relate to what the song is trying to emote and see if I can capture it
