Mrrzy, almost every week someone will come up to me and say that they would love to be able to play an instrument. Most of these people I have never met and don't know whether they are musical or not but I always give them the same answer; "Choose the type of music you like, and go out and get the instrument you would like to play and don't let anyone put you off your own choise. Once you have the instrument you are halfway there. Whether you just play on your back porch for your own enjoyment or you play in a local folk club or even aspire to playnig in Carnegie Hall it all starts with getting the instrument you want to play. Listen to other players you admire and try to work out "How they did that" and try to do it for yourself. You may never be great in the eyes or ears of others but if you are enjoying what you are doing it will be the best music in the world. Cheers Bill
