Name is Brian
Been playing guitar (self taught no lessons) for about 25 years...I play the drums and saxaphone as well (those I actually learned from lessons...but havnt played in a looong time)
A floormate in College (UNH) taught me the chords and I figured out songs by ear....I stopped playing for years (probably the last 12 or so) but had my guitar. Well my kids were watching "Boss Baby" and the parents play BLACKBIRD so I said..I want tolearn to play that! went down to the basement pulled out my cheapy Fender accoustic electric and hit up youtube.....well I was once again addicted (especially with ll the lessons on YOUTUBE!)
so...I have been playing non stop since June...I traded in the old fender and grabbed a Martin 000xae.....but got it home and noticed a big space between the neck and body...so that kind of turned me off of entry level martins...so I turned to taylor...
Ordered on GC online store pickup a Academy 14e. when I went to pick it up I played a 114e...and was like nope...im getting THIS!
so wemth 2 weeks ago with a 114e....and love it. but like all hobbies I have I get upgraditis...and these forums with glorious pictures...doesnt help
a local 324 mahogany popped up on another forum...so I got a great deal on it...and grabbed it...I now have both..and am probably returning the 114e...and making the 324 the family guitar
(discolsure: at first i couldnt play the 324...the 1 3/4 nut made finding chords harder....but i have adjusted..and the sound is so nice)
anyhow thats my story.....good to be here!
