Well, what I was looking for, was more like, an instrment compairson. Like I remember kids in HS that would take gutiar and be playing something at the end of the summer. Ok only 4 chords perhaps, but that is good for strum along, sing a long.

Yes, the key is practice. I think that someone who can play by ear, listen to a song, then play it. Well, that is some sort of natural talent that eludes me. The only way I can play a tune without the sheet music, is to muscle learn the song. Even on my "easy" concertina playing one note at a time, it takes me weeks to get a new tune down, to play by memory.

Blessed are the talented. Me, I alwise feel that I'm just on the edge of "getting it". Then the carrot moves, so I reach out again. I think its a road with no end, but I love the trip.
