Topic: new to chordie

A big shout out to everyone - long time chordie user and finally decided to register.  I have been a big fan of the site for song searches and just realized the forums.  the place seems really friendly - and only a touch of the Fender vs Gibson rivalry.

ONly joking, I dont hate anyone here at all, a good crowd, a good helpful crowd, a good cheerful ( mostly) crowd, a good informative corwd, a good.......ye get the picture?


Welcome

Howdy CKPhoto and Welcome to the Forums!

  Really there is no Gibson Fender rivalry here.....  Guitars are like cars, back 'em into a stump and they all look the same!
Everyone has their personal faves and sound is a personal choice.  Good group around here, and good friendships to be made, so don't be shy about posting.

Take Care;
Doug
