I've got my [geetar].. 3 weeks ago

I have had it for awhile. I know a handful of chords now. Yay! I just don’t know how to do the counting and strumming to songs. =(

I think the electric guitar is the instrument with the best sound. And I totally want to learn how to play. :)

Settled for 9V battery and now my amp is alive again. Did not practice for very long past 2 days, as hubby is in the hospital.



Practice 1 month ago

I’m back on track, practicing for 45 minutes today. I still don’t have power for my amp, but that’s no excuse not to practice chords!



Purchased a Hamer Slammer 1 month ago

Purchased an electric guitar from the local pawn shop. Got a good deal on it, and a practice amp.

Been practicing about an hour a day, up to a few weeks ago, when my amp quit. I need a new power cord!

I have a cheap acoustic to, but I love the sounds that come from the electric guitar.

I’ve learned 10 chords so far… working on more. Wishing my fingers would behave better for power chords.

Investing is already going a long way... 3 months ago

I decided to cough up some cash and take guitar lessons from a local guy. I had my first lesson today and I honestly think I learned more in this one day with him than in the past three months on my own.

We are going to meet every couple of weeks because money is tight. My homework now consists of practicing America’s Horse with no name, A Grateful Dead Song, and my choice, Free falling by Tom Petty.

I finally found a teacher. He’s pretty much showing me what I’d found on the net. It’s easier though, having a real person show how.

Well, I’m doing better.
I can play 47 songs (Not including ones I’ve written)
And I know A LOT of chords. :]
Piano and viola and musical friends help a lot…

I wish you guys luck!
I believe in you!
It’s not hard once you get the hang of it!
(P.S. I’m a lefty and play L-flip)
