Something I've thought about earlier, but never really did because of lame excuses like "I'll never have time to practice" or "I'm too old" and so on. Finally I did it tough, last week I bought an electric guitar. It's a Stratocaster, though not a real Fender. I can always buy an expensive guitar later if I still like to play, I'm just keeping it simple and cheap for now...

So, I can hear you think: "you can't play?!". No, I can't. I'm following an online course consisting of text material and short films which demonstrate the excercises. So I can play open D, G, A and C chords now. I can play the intro of Nothing Else Matters a bit and I've been trying Smoke On The Water, but that involves too much relocating of the left hand for now. I mean, I can do it, but not smoothly...

I'll take some pictures of the guitar when I receive the standard, it stands against the box it was delivered in for now... Which isn't good for a picture.

I'll keep you all informed about how things go. For now, my fingers just hurt...
