Hey guys

Just a quick hello to the community as i start my fun journey into this wonderful art that i've always wanted to try... no do. Wanted to do!  So... here goes nothing.

My skill level is next to none as of today(I do know the fat string is E but that is about it).. haha..  Am a really fast learner with 50 yrs under my belt in human form. Worked as an electrical engineer that allowed me to retire >10 yrs ago. Engineering is till something(hobbie) that i do for fun(projects) but wanted to try a new art form that is 180deg from engineering. So why not play guitar, right? I have always been fascinated with the workings of music theory.

Hey & welcome!  Success with guitar has one primary component:  repetitious practice.  And of course it helps to have a good curriculum!

The Fundamentals courses are the best place to start.

If you are interested in music theory you might also enjoy my older Fundamentals course focused on it.

Welcome, B4083!

Congrats on picking up the guitar, and joining Guitar Tricks!

I'm sure your engineer's mind will be super-helpful in making the learning process fun and successful.

Enjoy! - Lisa
