Hey guys!
Been away from the guitar for over a month...and I mean ALL things guitar, forums, playing, studying, etc. I just needed to take a serious break.
Today I decided to pick it up for the first time, and did a little song that I thought rather apropos.
I'm a bit rusty for sure, but it worked out a bit I guess.

I need some of this "rusty" for my finger picking attempts.....all two of them. Glad you're back in action. Job well done regardless of being rusty or not. :D

Thanks Roy, it's appreciated!
I'm hoping to do a video for YouTube soon...just haven't found the time yet.
Hoping to get to listing to alot that's been posted here in the coming days!

Superb Joe, the break cant have done you any harm at all judging by that.

Exactly, what did you mean with "rusty"? :lol:
Nice playing and nice song. Today I needed it something like it.
Thanks :wink:
Thanks everyone!!
I now have a VIDEO!!!

Yes, I like it. Nice guitar too ..... the head stock tells me it's one of those "fancy" Epiphones.

LOL yeah "fancy" is the word I'd use!
It's an Epiphone Masterbilt AJ-500M, all Solid Wood, Spruce top, Mahogany back and sides! Plays like a dream!

It seems to. My new acoustic is a little lower end Epiphone but exactly what I wanted. It is basically the same model Ace Frehley played when KISS did their MTV Unplugged session. Yours has a very sweet sound indeed.

Hi Joe
Very nice playing and a good clear video, what camera do you use ?
Glad your playing again.
Hey thanks! Me too! I've been working on a couple other arrangements as well, so I'm getting back into the swing of things a couple days a week!
It's just a little Flip HD camera, you can get it for less than $200.

Thats what I'm using too. I believe there about to pull the plug on producing them which is a shame.
I think a fortnigts holiday is about the longest time I've gone without playing. I always feel very rustly when I get back and I have to relearn passages that I knew!
