Hello from London!

[Sally]

Just wanted to say hello. I’m Sally, and I work full-time as a Co-Founder in a Creative Agency. Work is often long days, busy, with lots of demanding clients. I picked up my guitar again after (maybe 20 years?) to have a place to switch off. Long, long before that I played a little Spanish guitar as a young teenager and some chords around the campfire. Rusty doesn’t cover where I am now, it’s another life when I could play a tune. I remember learning Malagueña, although I feel like I didn’t get through it all, and my fingers no longer have any clue where to go. I did read music at one time but I feel like I have to learn all over again. Right now, just picking up the guitar and going very slowly feels like a wonderful stress reliever. Looking forward to making a little progress and enjoying the journey.

Hello Sally from London. I am in California on the coast. I played oboe in my early years. I grew up in a classical music family. I love reading music, but I always wanted to sing and play guitar- right out of the 70s. I started 6 years ago. I could not find anybody to learn from and so I started with classical style once again. I have the basics down and will keep up the classical for technique. But I am so happy to find Real Guitar Success. I started this January. It is perfect for me. I am learning to use a pick. Welcome! Let’s make progress and have fun learning. Enjoy all the new sounds. Our fingers will follow.
