Just wanted to say hi to everyone. Thinking about getting a guitar after a 35 year break so will have a few questions.

Doune Castle is one of the few we haven't visited. We're not far from Loch Ness, never seen Nessie though!

welcome, andy!  Glad you're here.  I'm from the US, but half of my family is from scotland so I have some experience with the "wee bits" and the "lads" and so forth.  You'll find lots of members here with vast amounts of knowledge and ready to help :).  Lots of very interesting and thought provoking threads as well.  Enjoy.

Hi Andy and welcome. I'm from the Midlands and this is a terrific place to rekindle your passion. You'll get all the help you'll need to make informed choices on Taylor's magnificent guitars. Then GAS will get you and you'll buy the first shiny one. Then another, then another!!!! ;D
