It’s not much, but it’s mine!
I managed to get it clean, restrung and learned how to tune it. I’ve spent the last couple weeks just practicing the chromatic scale and just started learning some basic chords yesterday.
I started with the trumpet in high school and then went on to do digital music production as a hobby for ten years and even managed to produce my own album.
I realized a lot of the tracks on my album had guitar elements and it dawned on me that I could eventually work to make those my own actual recordings rather than synthesized.
So I’m already familiar with the slow burn process of learning a new instrument and I’m already seeing massive progress from the first time I picked it up. Here’s to the next decade of learning a new instrument!
Was it heavier than you imagined?
Just kidding. I accidentally learned how to play on a left handed guitar because I didn't know that was a thing! I bought it at Goodwill without any knowledge of guitars.
It was definitely awkward at first. It took me a decent few hours before I didn’t feel goofy holding it.
