Alright.....Here I am. The average 42 years old guy, who have lived, worked, loved, cryed (I'm a woossie during sad movie). I fell down again and again got up again and again. And regarding behind me I see one things that has been constant in my life. And that is....My interest in guitars.
Now I am by no means an expert about the thing. But I learned a bunch by myself.
And that is the only way I could learn what I know about this because most of guitarist
are lone wolf. They dont share everything they know. Well I am not that type of guy.
Have you ever been to a musical shop and felt like you are juged because of your
choice of instrument or pedal or string. I am not pulling your legs most of those guys
in shops will look at you and judge you right away and even almost laugh at you.
Last week I went to get some strings for a new guitar. Now it`s been a while since I played
and one of the thing that is most important when you play guitar is to have callis on the tip
of your finger. Well you accumulate that by playing. what I like to do is to get some little strings first when I havent been playing for a while because that way I build callis gradually and ease the pain it cause to play without callis. Sooooooooo....to make a long story short I order a set of
0.08 set of string and this guy behind the counter tells to me in his most condesending voice "Geeze you must not pick hard to get such LITTLE strings".
I am all surprised by his tone. but I answer quickly "Do you want to sell them to me or should I go to the other shop ??". Seeing that I was in no mood for his BS (scuse my french !!), he quickly answered me back properly and I got what I want. But this did put me in a bad mood.
I came back home installed the strings tuned up this new guitar and started to play.
My mood became better almost instantly. Why should I get affected by this guy remark.
Why should anyone go through things like this ? Well I decided to do something about it now.
Here is my blog about guitars. It's about what I know, I give it freely and it will be about what
I keep learning about it. So this blog is for the beginner-intermediary guitarist. It is for you DUDE !!
So sit tight hold you hat on it`s gonna be fun.
