26yo guitar newb that picked up my first axe a week or so ago. Being a saxophone player and music minor, I have experience with a good bit of theory, so let me know if there is anything I can help with. As for guitar, I'm used to playing a single note at a time, so it is sure to be a little interesting starting off hehe. See you guys around!

From an axe to an axe!

I was wondering if you know of Heitor Villa-Lobos (genius "string" player classical composer), worth checking out, and Paco De Lucia...Spanish guitar...also genius.

Thanks John, and I hadn't heard of them before, but I just listened to Bachianas Brasileiras #2 and Entre dos Aguas on Youtube, definitely going to have to look into them more.

Hey Excellector06,

Welcome to GT and the wonderful world of guitar playing. I like saxophones and all, but guitar is just such a blast:) Great that you know some theory already!

Have fun with it all, and please let me know if I can do anything to help along the way!

All the best,
Anders

Thanks for the welcome, I will definitely be coming here for help first, all the instructors seem to be both very specific/beginner friendly and very knowledgeable.
