    Default Hi, new to forum

    Hi guys.

    New to the forum, just wanted to say Hi.

    Picked up my old Squire Strat for the first time on years & decided to join a forum or two to get buck up to speed.

    Any recommendations for sites / apps to give me exercises & refreshers to get my fingers working again?

    Also think I need a new guitar, put a new set of stings on & the neck needs a tweak, problem is the truss rod won't shift 😲

    Hello, and welcome!

    Exercises and refreshers? Well, Youtube comes to mind... that's a gold mine of information - if you can separate the wheat from the chaff.

    At the moment I'm listening to a lot of blues / blues rock and as always OASIS, Blur, Pink Floyd and modern guitar pop stuff. Quite a wide taste in music, as long as it had guitars in it.
