Congratulations. I've always wanted to play but have had a million excuses.
Good on ya! Picture of the axe, please. ;-) cheers, frank --- Original Message --- From: Darren Addy <[email protected]> Sent: December 21, 2012 12/21/12 To: "Pentax-Discuss Mail List" <[email protected]> Subject: OT: Bought my first guitar (Old dog, new tricks?) Don't know if anybody here plays or not, but I've decided to stop putting off things I've always wanted to do and decided to learn the guitar. After exercising my Google Fu, talking to a guitar-playing coworker and asking a couple of questions on the Acoustic Guitar Forum, I decided to get a Seagull S6 (original). If I bought new, I was going to go with Cedar but I tripped across a **gorgeous** "20th Anniversary" edition that is Spruce and Maple with a high gloss finish (semi-gloss being the usual finish on a Seagull S6). They only made 2000 of these, apparently and I got it for a LOT less than a new one. I'm always about bang-for-the-buck. It won't be in my hot little hands for a week or two yet when I get it from a friend, but I'm looking forward to trying to learn (Old Dog, New Tricks). I've already discovered the aforementioned forum and justinguitar.com (along with his YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/JustinSandercoe ) and I plan to start with his beginner's course and a book before possibly going to a local teacher for lessons. Anyway, any words of wisdom from The Collective who play would be most welcome. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
