Fahey

Practiced just a little from my fingerpicking book. Started to read the John Fahey biography. 

Interested in sharing with acoustic guitar without worrying about using the limitation of language while doing so.

Christmas is a couple of weeks away, and with that comes a bunch of shows with me and various members of the band. I decided to stop being a part of the music group at Church. Too much of a hassle. 

Acoustic Guitar

My Martin is difficult to play. I’m used to the easy of playing my electric. Looks like the M can use a string changing and perhaps a bit of a set-up. That’s ok, but I’m itching to play! Recently received a couple of really cool books: 

Nice stuff here. But definitely not easy. It’s going to take some work. 

Been listening to, and intrigued by, John Fahey. Love his Christmas album.

Expressing myself with just an acoustic guitar might be where it’s at for me. My son does so naturally, just noodling around playing with alternative tuning.

Martin

Happy New (actually used) Guitar Day to me. Sold my Taylor and with the money bought a Martin 000-10e.

Been awhile

Just getting into guitar. Going over chord melody songs: What Child is This / Over the Rainbow / White Christmas / All the Things You Are. Practicing improvising over “My Favorite Things” too. Thinking I’d like to make a tiny amount of money as well as getting a smaller acoustic, I put my Taylor up for sale. Thinking of getting another electric guitar; however, I don’t need it. Really love my Epiphone Casino Coupe, have my telecaster, and my son’s Stratocaster.
