I went to a local shop today to do some swapping(no new guitar just a case and some supplys). While I was there I was explaing to the owner how my playing is kind of in a funk. And how Id like to learn more about how to play more of a traditional style of blues. I asked him about lessons he gave and how in the past when I showed up for lessons to figure out stuff I was working on they treated me like a beginner. Next think I knew almost 2 hours had passed. He showed me alot of stuff in those 2 hours to show me what he can help with with and explain where he's limited by what he knows. He then told me to think about it for a few days and let him know to make sure what he can teach me is the right direction. At $10 a 30 minute lesson Im all but positive I will take lessons for a while. But even if I thought he couldnt help me I gained a ton of respect for a guy I already admired as a shop owner. One of the few guys I know that is more about the music and sharing the knowledge then how fat he can fill his pockets. And I felt I should give a shout out never know when someone from my area might stop in TheFret and be looking for a teacher....area is southern indiana. :applause :applause :applause
