Default New guy saying hello from Florida
Howdy all...thought to introduce myself and say hello.

About myself. Been playing guitar for over 40 years both as a hacker and professional hacker. Always in the rock, blues and country music. Had a life chainging event a couple of years ago and stopped playing all together. Some friends have been encouraging me to pick the guitar back up and just recently (about a couple of months ago) decided to do just that.

I've always liked jazz but never had much call for it with the folks I've worked for in the past. I have no interest in playing out again at the moment so I think I will have plenty of time to get familiar with this new style...or new to me.

At any rate I'm really enjoying the guitar again. Like it's almost new again. Definitely a new and different hand work out...that I believe is what I'm liking the most. Ha, less gear too.

Oops..sorry for the babbling. Just wanted to say hello and glad to be here. Definitely be picking yous guys and gals brains in the future.
