A Hello From Scotland Options

[VikingBlues]

Hello from the snows of Scotland. I have been guided to here by Bogdan Radovic.
I still have to investigate most of the forum and the website but I'm very impressed with what I've seen so far.

I'm in my late 50s and after a 20 year break from playing started to get back into playing guitar around the year 2000. Started to take it seriously about 4 years ago (4 years and 1 day ago I joined JamPlay and that kick started a real enthusism for guitar).

I have been trying to play blues in that 4 years - my wife got me interested in the genre and also suggested I play without a pick. Both suggestions made the guitar so much more enjoyable for me. 2 to 3 years ago I started to crack the hearing notes in the head and playing them on the fretboard puzzle - transformed my interest in guitar into an obsession. She even encourages me to buy more expensive gear when I'm trying to decide what to get.

I love to spend most of my guitar time playing along to backing tracks - the focus of my mind on the music when I do this is like medication - eases the stresses away of the days real life problems.

The last four years have seen a ridiculous procession of electric guitars bought and then sold, but finally I think I have 4 keepers ... well for the time being anyway. I'm trying to stick to 4 maximum - that's tough. Not sure if my amp situation is as settled, but I'm a bit restricted on amps living in a flat - volume is a big issue.

Look forward to joining in the discussions with you all on the forum.
