 Hello all from Finland Hi, I am also a new member on this forum, even if I had some posts earlier, but I thought to introduce me now. Have been reading this site for a while. I am a man born in -47 and from Finland, but I have guite little jazzexperience . Started early sexties when I build my first guitar and bought my first amp. But I was years without playing after armyservice. Then later on midseveties I started again on a lokal folkmusicgrop with my guitar and kontrabass tills our main violist movet to an other town and it ended. Then it was again a longer period without any playing to -98, when I started my to play with my collega of job at his home. Now after that I have had little experiences of playing with other musicisans, when I take my guitar to jams in some restaurants. In autum I was asked to join a band to play guitar when they play zipsymusic. It has been quite an experience. Never tried such thing. We are a violin, guitar, harmonica and balalaicakontrabass and a femaile vocalist with two dansing ladys...We are not zipsies, but the music is from them in several languages. Hope this also continues in the future... I have bought several jazzguitars and amps after I made my new start. Some are bought only that I was gurious to hear how they sound and differ, some are just for fun. May be sometimes I have bossibility to show some my gears to you and tell my opinions of otherīs. Happy New Year 2010... juuso1 P.S. Sorry my bad English, but I donīt use any translators etc, only trying to remember, what I learned at school for long time ago...So I think I donīt partisipate these discussions very often, only read them, but...     |

| Welcome - from a Swedish guitarist! Welcome to The Forum! Hi, we are about the same in age - I was born in 1947. I started playing around 1961 and had the pleasure to play in a great pop band during the sixties. Still playing, for the time being in a jazzy blues band where also my son - born in 1976 plays guitar and keyboard. We are trying to learn a little "outside" playing so here we are hoping to find a little knowledge to be added to our musical luggage. Hope to find this forum to be what I think it is and to pick up a little more flavour and spices to my playing. It's never too late! Happy New Year! /Roland |
