My First Guitar



I am in the later half of my 30's with four children and two stepchildren, married to man who taught himself to play guitar as a child and is very talented. I've never played guitar before. I mentioned once after seeing my husband playing his guitar with one of my daughter's friends that I'd like to learn - to be able to strum along with the rest of the family (all of our children have musical talent - from their dad).

He went out right away and surprised me with the guitar above.

I'm not totally inept in music. I played third year piano as a child and was in band (clarinet) for a couple of years in middle school. Guitar always seemed really difficult to me.

So, here's my guitar. Now I have to learn to play it. I will be 38 in October and I am just starting to learn to play guitar. Is it true what they say about you can't teach an old dog new tricks? We shall see.
