I would recommend lick library, they do a few artists that you might like! Or try and find a few music stores when you reach dry land! xD

Actually I suggested he looked at Lick Library in my comment on 29/07...
I suspect you may be right. Good to know you had to train your coaches in Wales though eh butty?

Shymae Phil butty,
Funny how many colonials refer to the UK as England isn't it? Keep on educating mate and I'll lend a hand. Wales is very definitely a superior country.
I'm starting to get a grip on tabs, but it's slow progress. I dare say I'd have done better take a few lessons!

Thanks Johnny - nice to meet so many friendly faces here. As the old saying goes, great oaks from little acorns grow... my playing is still at acorn stage, but give it time, give it time.

Thanks Norm - I've enjoyed sitting on the sidelines and just reading bits in the forums, but have spent most of my time reading and playing the various songs available.

Thank you!
Love your siggy... all I need now is to find people with cloth ears
Doug_Smith wrote:Usky; Welcome to Chordie my friend. Power-tab is a good one which I have used, and it works. Thanks for the recommendation on TuxGuitar as well, I'm running Ubuntu on my laptop and it might be handy to have a good application for that too. I'm converting my sheet music to PDF and sticking it in the thing so it can go along to jam sessions. A lot easier to carry than 450 pages of paper, won't blow away in a breeze, just gotta figure out how to work a mouse with my toes.
Take Care;
Doug
Thanks for the welcome Doug
I have to say I'm impressed with TuxGuitar - it's capable of importing both Guitar Pro and Power Tab files so is a useful addition if, like me, you're also a member of Ultimate Guitar. Like you I'm keeping sheet music on a hard drive these days and building up quite a collection. Ever thought of using speech recognition for retrieving files?

I stumbled across Justin on You Tube - very good he is too. He offers private lessons and DVDs on his personal site (http://www.justinguitar.com/index.php).
Thanks for the welcome folks - so it seems (with a few exceptions naturally) I've accidentally dropped in to a fellow 'Old Fart' community here!
I'll try not to bore you all too much with my inane drivel.
Hi all, just thought I'd post a quick hello as a new user of this fine site. My thanks to all those who've contributed tabs/chord patterns for the likes of me to pinch.
As it goes I'm not new to guitar playing, but have recently started again after a twenty odd year break and learning all over again.
First time I played in public, with the exception of family and friends that is, was at a folk club... I was terrible, but most people were well into their drink and didn't seem to notice!
Zurf wrote:I'll try. I've never tabbed anything. Is there some software or something for drawing the lines?
- Zurf
Have you tried the Power Tab Editor (http://www.power-tab.net/)? It's a freebie and runs on Windows platforms. If you're a Linux user you could always try TuxGuitar - I use that on my Ubuntu box.

Can anybody recommend a good teach yourself DVD based guitar course, focussed on Electric, possibly with the emphasis on technique.
I work away from home a lot, on a ship, and our internet connection is just too slow for any online based lessons. With a DVD and some books I'd be able to get along better in the quiet of my cabin.
Have a look at the Lick Library stuff ***feel free to google them if you wish but no links please*** they cater for just about every taste and are superbly produced.
