Thanks for the replys to my question Guys

i do pratice every day sometimes 2 or three times

i also have a washburn acustic which i pratice on as well one of the problems that i have at the moment is i have quite large fingers and my second finger is deformed at the tip (due to an acident many years ago) and it is larger than my first finger at the tip so the cords i am learning i have to change the fingering a bit for instance the A chord i have to use my first and secound finger because i cant fit my 123 fingers on the frets without toucthing the outhers i have learnt 5 cords so far but cant change with any speed yet takes about 5 secounds!!! any tips on the best ways to pratice

Hi All

I have been taking guitar lessons now for a whole 3 weeks!!  I'm learning the blues scales very slowly.


My question is I have just bought myself a new amp and I'm wondering if someone could give me some settings to start from?


I'm interested in blues the amp I'm using is a Randall rg75d g2 series.  The guitar is a Washburn Pro X series.  I also have a Les Paul custom (chinese copy) <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_redface.gif" border=0 alt="Embarassed"> which I'm not sure about.


My heros are Clapton, Gary Moore, Buddy Guy.


Thanks in advance for any suggestions, Cobby
