Hello everyone,
I wanted to briefly introduce myself before I post more messages or questions.
My name is Lee and I live in Wisconsin Rapids, WI., U.S.A. I'm in my 40's and started practicing guitar daily about 3 months ago. I am learning theory from books.
I have an Alvarez AD60 acoustic, a Cordoba C5 classical, and just purchased my first electric guitar which is a red Hagstrom Viking. I've owned the acoustic guitars for a while but decided recently to see if I could discipline myself to go further than two or three chords with them.
As a teenager I listened to bands like Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Rush, Neil Young, etc. Later on I started listening to Pat Metheny (First Circle) and from him other jazz music. I like some of the blues guys like Muddy Waters, B.B. King, R.L. Burnside, and so on. The Gipsy Kings are probably the band that influenced me to buy the Cordoba.
I could go on about music that I like and all of that but I don't want to stray too far from being brief about this introduction if I haven't already. Thanks to everyone that helped with my questions on the Viking!
