Hi
My name is Greg and I live in Spain, on the east coast, just north of valencia. I'm 55 y.o. and retired with a lovely wife and a lovely daughter of 17 years. I have been looking for ways to fill my days and I have always been interested in the guitar so I've decided to give it a go. My knowledge base of music and instrument technology such as amplifiers etc. is almost nil so you guys are really going to suffer in the forums as I will be asking questions that most of you will think are so basic as to be stupid. Eventually I hope to overcome all these dificulties and reach a point where I may,one day, be able to help other people in the forums. In the meantime if anyone wants to jump ship now is the time to do it before I get into question mode. Seriously, I'm looking forward to being a part of your fine guitar community. Take care. Greg. |
