unusually it's nothing to do with my knee, fat slow fingers no less, however practice will hopefully improve things

U taking up strumming Mark?

You can sarinade us all at the next AR

Good luck with it if you are mate, not a musical bone in my body. I remember what my primary school guitar teacher once said like it was yesterday "Give up, you'll never be able to play it" ahhhhhh good times.

I am indeed, never tried before, today being the first time I've actually tried anything "musical", I may very well be like yourself, however I have a stubborn streak that's had a long time to mature, so if I never get good I will at least be well practised.

Cheers Mark.

That`s good, When i started i had a few lessons at school and then took it myself from there. Just to learn chords / scales & the most important thing technique... I did have a decent book @ home i`ll have a look see if i still have and if so your more than welcome to it - i may have given it away already but if not it`s yours...

A bloke I work with is a master at guitar playing he is donating a few lessons as part of his prize towards raising money for our companies chosen charity ( teenage cancer trust) maybe I should bid them for you?

any help appriciated guys; although at this stage I reckon there's no substitute for hard work and practice to get the very basics down, but after that I can do some fun stuff.

Cheers Mark.
