Well, the guitar is out of the case and tuned as well as I can do by ear. Why I didn't keep my pitch pipes in the case is beyond me, but at this moment I don't feel like digging through a ton of boxes looking at them. And my ear is pretty good, anyway ( Read more... )

nice. I have the music printed and plan on learning that, along with a song from Natalie Grant that I will be singing at church this Sunday called "The Real Me." Defines who I am and how I feel. Youtube it if you're interested. I don't know if the music is available.

I need to learn how to play classical. All those fingers used at the same time...blechh...give me my pick!

Oh, go ahead and Youtube it. :)

Using all those fingers at the same time is what makes it slow going right now - developing the coordination is hard! My co-worker told me he just raised his guitar practice rate from 120 to 150 notes/minute, sustained over 5 minutes, and can burst up to 220 notes/minute. I'm barely at a tenth of that!

Thank you! One of the few pictures of myself that I actually like! :)

I'm not very good at the guitar either, it's not my best instrument. But it's the only one I own right now.

Fun project. I like how the picture makes it look like a gold leaf guitar.

Sometimes it's fun to just stack Photoshop filters. ;)
