I like to sing songs that grab me in some way (my musical mission--singing songs that don't get heard enough). I strum guitar chords for accompaniment, in fact was motivated to learn guitar because none of the other players I ran into knew the songs I wanted to sing. I have no interest in learning to pick. I occasionally learn a new chord to enlarge my capability to sing certain songs in certain keys. I don't consider myself a true guitarist, rather a singer who strums chords.My profession is auto repair (mechanical, not body). I can be very technical and precise in that. I'm afraid I don't fit the suggested profile.
