But I'm aged 52 (nearly) started playing in March with lessons after trying to do it on my own a few years ago with no success. I can now play about 10 chords easily and 'know' where to put my fingers for another 10 or so but without the speed.
My first ambition is to busk in a town centre somewhere and for someone to throw a coin into my case(!) I reckon I'm about a year away from being ready to do that.
My next ambition is to do an open-mike
Then maybe set up a band and thrash out old punk and new wave tunes.
If I achieve that by the time I'm 55 then I'd be a happy man.
I do think I now need to be amongst other guitarists now. I'm about to get my first electric and amp, so I would be picking everyone's brains left, right and centre.
My guitar tutor has been excellent, but I am now almost self-teaching now and really only need him to fine tune stuff with me and teach me technical stuff. However, I know I will need him to get me over the change from acoustic to electric.
Not sure what I have to do here? Are we just showing an interest?
peeps here organise jam/recording sessions in studios, see http://thefretboard.co.uk/categories/events for a list
looking for people to play with? I guess here http://thefretboard.co.uk/categories/personnel or maybe a thread in >> Guitar for your region.
Thanks for those links, will take a look.
Imo playing with others is the best way to get better.. other than lots of practice..
