Why I'm Here

I’ve been playing since mid 80’s but took a long hiatus from it a long while as life got in the way. I picked it back up again in about 2007ish. I’ve made some strides and am comfortable with open chords and changing quickly between them but wanting to take it to the next level now.

I have an old Fender F5 acoustic purchased new in 1983ish

I have a Martin DR new in 2007

Last a but not least a Martin HD28-VE new in 2016

City

I want to improve to be able to explore more of the guitars potential. I'd like to be able to range up and down the neck and be more creative in my playing. I want to become more solid with my playing. I enjoy it for the entertainment for myself while playing and I would like to be able to create happiness for others through my playing. I am also interested in picking with others more on down the road.

My Guitar Goal

What I'm Focused On Now

I want to get my barre chords more solid & clean. I have already started on this with the barre chord skills course.

I want to get back into improvement of lead and rhythm roles of playing with others or backing tracks.

 

My Guitar Routine

This is How I TAC

I’m going to shoot for four days per week throughout the year. Sometimes I will easily exceed that but some seasons it’s more difficult.

Play will mostly be in evenings after dinner before going horizontal. But I really enjoy morning sessions when I have the time to get those in. I may revert back to that ultimately.

I work from  a home office and guitars picks and all my gear is in there. I can shut my door and not disturb TV watchers in the the next room (unless I plug in and turn it to Eleven)
