i have a hohner electric accustic i paid 275.00 it stays in tune great and the action is as good as any i have played in the music store,naturally i would love a martin or gibson if not for the name itself and they dont make bad guitars but a experienced musician can make even a 2/4 with strings sound good and he can only play better on a fine instrument

i agree with bootlegger you have to learn the structure and then you can solo there are those who can solo and not know squat about rhythem and theory but they are very few in number the tried and true way of musical education in the long run will stay with you always.

arkady is correct try to focus on somthing that can lead you to where you want to be with your picking,to much to soon is not a good thing because learning is a slow methodical approach and to be honest i have played for over 45 yrs. and i dont understand all of your diagrams,simplifly less is more

p..........try writting some words to a song,poem and read them aloud all words have a rhythem in them because as was pointed out earlier syllables and each one can be long or short even the word syllables is broken down into three parts syll..la..bles or dah dah dah in 4/4 time it would be expressed as 1 2 3 rest so conjure up several words try to rhyem them and then add meter to each group of words if you keep at it sooner or later you will have the foundation of a song and then you just (as was suggested) write as often as you can or carry some portable recording device with you when the mood hits you record what your thinking and listen and edit the ideas that might bear fruit, good luck

If you had the choice of blue or red, as you laid upon your bed, the red will let you go to sleep the blue will give you extacy,I'll take the blue what about you? gimmie one more blue and let me drift into my fantacy.......your turn

i have several zevon cds i liked "excitable boy" and of course "wearwolf of london" who knows how many more great songs he would have contributed

well south paw i guess you'll have to be president of the club im afraid to ask how old you are i have heard a lot from senior players and what i like most is everyone still shares a passion for music and you can put me in that catagory too

shady i got a printout man i sure wouldn't want to meet up with that critter

helena did you type that whole post? at your age (over thirty) you must use caution your fingers might get numb and the old fartz club is for anyone,even those poor souls with hangovers boy that can make you feel worse then old.

well said wilbaye and welcome you have echoed my feelings the revolution has begun

you may enter by my proclamation and be dubbed the "old young fartz" i think i am the oldest fart so this grants me all the privilage unless an older fart usurps my proclamation

mabey having an "old fartz" page isnt such a bad idea with all these young full of pi## and viniger wipper snappers chomping at our a## we can seek refuge with our own kind and mabey...DRINK HOT COCOA! and talk about the "good ole days" when we could do all night what it takes all night and play some shuffel board or gin rummy and compair medications "boy oh boy cant wait to regress"to bad youth is waisted on the young
