Hey there-

I've been lurking for several weeks and finally decided to register and post. This is a very cool site- informative and well run.

My story began 20+ years ago when I started learning for real (did have an earlier abortive attempt). I was largely self-taught, although I did take some classes. Then about 10 or so years back, I dropped out of it for the usual reasons: work/women/life-in-general.

Recently, a close friend decided that she wanted a guitar. She, like me, also used to play but dropped out of it for quite a few years. So off we went to our local GC. She got herself a shiny new guitar, and I got inspired to get back into it. When I took out my guitar, I was a bit worried that the neck would be all fouled up since I never slackened the strings. But lo and behold- it was fine and as playable as when I last played it (whenever that was).

So I'm playing again and glad to have found this site. Look forward to chatting with all you guitarists out there!

Thanks for the welcome, everyone!

Eirraca: I told her about this site, and she too is impressed with it. She'll probably be making an appearance soon.
