  • Thats funny huh well I am 57 years old and I don't want to waste my time learning what someone else already did I would rather learn technique and then I should be able to play any song if I have all the mechanics....I guess it is the age difference but the time it takes to memorize a song....I could have 3 chords feeling easy....MY philosphy just thought I would point out the difference...Maybe I am also a bit don't want to learn songs and get out there to feeling but I am a guy who likes to know what he is doing anyway and I do learn all the songs for the stage that I am at...and that is fun....I also go back to first string book and start over.....how bad do you suck perrtey bad BUT. I have already climbed a mountain getting through the first six strings in a year and learning a dozen chords and a pentatonic scale so.... good to be here only second time I posted. Pebber Keep up the good work Samaritain. Much Appreciatied.
    Cheers,

  • Pebberbrown Youtube, where to start?DateSat Dec 29, 2012 11:31 pm

    I'm the same way....start with loosening up and doing chromatic scales...the picking exercises...as a beginner then I do chords. That takes a good hour and the time sure flys. It's only been a year and getting to the intermediate stage was tough. Hit a wall found something to keep me going. Lack of one on one instructin can be a beathc sometimes but it is clearly slow and steady slow and steady to make progress at least for me and being 57 I am impatient like I can't get 40 years of playing done in a week a month or whatever but closing the gap....IF I practice just one hour a day everyday I figure in about 2 more years I will start to look to playing with others and not get to chocked on it. Acoustic at this point still probably a long time on my budget. I can make alot of the same sounds as electric just not sustain. I think the longer I stay on acoustic the stronger my fingers will be whenever I make a transition. Lot's of second hand gitars on sale out there. I think they go on sale once people get passed the first position...That is where I was at until lately. But stick it out. Inspiration will come from somewhere. I fantisize if I won the lottery I would move next door to PB and take lessons everyday from him. Can't get from even the so called Conservatory of Music ( i'm in Canada) what PB gives-I try to tell my teachers that and out comes the cookie cutter. ARRGhhh so I stopped paying them I will go back and do the exam for grade 2 when I am ready that is all they are good for is creds.
