    Hi Fella,

    I am a guy from Glasgow in Scotland (yes, Laurie is a Scottish man’s name, I know it is a women’s name in the US !).
    Just picked up a guitar and started strumming th elast few days.
    Thankfully, I stumbled across your tutorial.
    You are brilliant my friend and I cannot thank you enough for getting me started tonight on my first lesson on how to start learning the notes on the fretboard. I will try and follow your Tut’s from now on. I think it will not be easy for me though as I am a complete beginner !

    Cheers, from Scotia !!

And amzaed at the guitars and diff style sapes . elctri and acoustic , drum with metalic flake , But I never got into taking lessons. then in my 20 agot a electric and got bored trying to learn tab and not be able to break into a small well know riff or part of song, so got busy with chasing the which drove me nuts lolo That shure was nice double pick up berguday eltric . Now the year have past on older and I got the urge back and with interent and stuff there are riff , and 3 cord songs 4 chord song to play while practing Acoustic with built in equilizer an amps.

D. or chords good idea or give finer tips a eat? Nexthow does one know if there acoustic strings are to close together then what is consider normal. , reason ask I was in store music the other day and pull one of the rack and paying a D chord or A or c was easy m no flat note on any string. or are they guitars the same.?
    Last can you come up with a 3 chord song that would be poluar for me to play to take break on during practing . Somthing that W chors like I start out with E chord ,G, D,E, But I be happy a song with what ever order you put them in and if leve out the ZD replace with another easy chord would be better since finer so sore the tips of my figers. a nd maybe a rif or two be it james bod rif anything As with song I will know if I have the picking and strum done way song is to sound. Once My hip and arthritis pain uder control And and fing tip calous up good I can’t wait to be able to to play a song on my onw and it sounds ok and the with practice and suggestions from you I willget bett Whatfullfillmemt that will be.. But I need something to hold me over as I thing many do , it is called playing .be guitar drum practing same note chrods are neded but insprition satifactio out also and a easy song is practing using them chords and there s a plus geting the stum patern down not to mention pnote pcking to opening of song. I would be very thankful if you find the time to list me choce of songs out 4 to pick or tab out a poluar song with opening picking to stuming the chords. and how to do and also a quicj riff .
