I’m no musician. I used to enjoy playing the acoustic now and then. I cannot read music and I learn by ear. I had been using a $99 no name black guitar, swapped out the strings with some Fender’s, bought a clip on kapo and some picks.
Fast forward, 8 years and after having 2 children, I had lost the urge to play as much as I had been. I recently dusted off my $99 special and started to get the itch... so much so that I went and upgraded to a new Epiphone Hummingbird Pro Acoustic / Electric as of today. Not the most expensive guitar, but for me- it’s a massive upgrade. Scooped up a few Dunlop Tortex medium picks and plugged it into my basic amp as soon as I got home. Sounds amazing. Now to try and teach myself all over again.
Guitar players... where do I go from here? Favourite apps? Advice? I may look into music lessons in the fall, but until then... I’m open to any pointers or stories you might have from playing. Here’s a pic of my new Hummingbird.
