Hi guys - GF dumped me so I adopted a dog and got myself a Strat

WildyOne

I was lucky with the dog - He learnt how to play from his mom (or wet-nose) I am the one that suck.

Been messing around with some youtube and other guides and it feels as if there "might" be, way down deep, an unexplored, hidden "talent" that want to come out and rock the world, a feeling that I am yet to experience in 20 years playing Golf ?

Been browsing the Lessons, found what I was looking for, and MUCH more - Now to PM Keira later - but now I need to go check the "Braaivleis Vuurtjie" ?

"GF dumped me so I adopted a dog and got myself a Strat"
Seems that hidden talent may have its roots in the blues

Welcome! Contacting Keira is certainly a good idea.

The last time someone had girl troubles and picked up a guitar we got a thread 32 pages long that spanned 3 years ?

But welcome! You'll enjoy it here ?

Welcome! Dogs and guitars are usually more forgiving of us than girlfriends. ?

Guitars are much better than girlfriends, they have volume knobs!!! And a crying, screaming guitar is much better than the gf version!!!

Swapped nitpicking for flat picking, best move you could make ?

And guitars don't complain when you put them up on Gumtree when you feel like upgrading or just trying something different

Nor do they slap you if you pluck their G-string...
