I'm new to the forum and want to share something meaningful to me. Perhaps it can inspire someone else also.

My favorite quote is from John Fahey, an amazing self-taught guitarist who passed several years ago.

"I learned to play the guitar by spending incredible amounts of time, because I was a slower learner than everybody else, practicing very simple things. The only reason I am still playing, and some others are not, is because I wouldn't give up"

From "The Best of John Fahey 1959-1977"

Welcome Gruhn Loon!!

If you are going to follow someone, John Fahey and George Gruhn are two to good ones to emulate. The first for playing the second for business.
