Nice Axe  TPG

Since I bought my Acoustic my playing has come on in leaps and bounds ...  I now take my guitar with me in my truck,  when I have to wait to be unloaded (most BIG coldstores make us wait around two hours .. If its those tossers called Phil Handley at Newark then its four hours !!) I pick up my axe and start playing.

My other guitar is an SG200 so its kinda stupid taking that in my truck with me.


Oh yeah .. Mines a Steel strung Fender electro-acoustic.

Its actually doing me a favour playing it because the action is higher than my SG so I have to press harder .. Which in turn strengthens the muscles up further.


Just learning Lynryd Skynryds Freebird atm .. Which kinda hurts the fingers keep bending the strings up that far !!

7>8


Have fun

@ TPG

My mate started teaching me in 1983 ... Then the TIT overdosed & died !!

I gave up trying to learn after that ...

It was about a year ago I realised that I'd had a guitar some 20 years ( Actually i had one in 76 but never mind that) and I was utter crap.

Time to do something about it ...  

Everytime I picked it up  plugged it in (SG200) my missuses gave me a bigger earache than my playing...

So ..

I bought the afformentioned Fender acoustic and started practising in my truck ...

All with the help of .....

Guitar Tab Universe

Can play pretty kewl now,   But long way to go yet !!
