Hi all, my name is Morné from Pretoria, South Africa.
I got my very first guitar for x-mas and have been messing around for the last couple of days. It's a Santafé, classic (or like I read somewhere, a steel string). I have no previous musical background, so be ready for a LOT of questions!
My goal is not to be the next Stevie, Eric or Roger Walters, I just want to sit next to the camp fire, in the middle of the bush somewhere and play nice, easy listening "background" music.
Well, that's me in a nutshell, speak you on the forums...
Cheers for now,
Morné
Hello, welcome to guitarnoise!
WOW, South Africa?!?! That's pretty awesome. :D
Correct me if I'm wrong (other guitarnoise forum people) but BRING On the questions cuz we love answering em here...or at least I do! :P
Happy playing.
Welcome to Guitar Noise, Morné! We look forward to seeing you around the forums! :D
I believe the guitar you have is a steel string acoustic. The classical acoustic guitars would require nylon strings. We're not opposed to seeing pictures!! :D

Howdy! I'm not from South Africa but someday hope to be. I'm thinking about starting up an ice skating rink there.
