I've played guitar since the middle 60s, and my first electric was a Harmony Bobkat which I should have kept as it is worth a few bucks now. But, I took about 40 years off from guitar to work, teach, go to grad school, have a family, and stuff like that.

Since I have wanted a Strat since I was 16 and, at 71, I decided to go for it. It should be here early next week. You can see it in my avatar. I also re-joined Guitar Tricks and plan to get back to learning!

Welcome back then, young fella. (I'm 65, but we're still young, right?)

Glad to have you with us.
