    (lol), just read my profile

    Me too for six months. Mostly acoustic, but I try to play about 15-20 minutes everyday.

    I started (bass) 12 years ago when I was 16. I've played daily for long but played less the last 2-3 years. I started again in January to play almost daily, bought a new bass, a new amp.

    I haven't really been playing guitar for 6-months - it was a little joke :D (LOL).
    I guess you didn't read my profile - No matter, just keep at it - It can be quite
    a rewarding experience, and it can also be quite therapeutic at stressful times.

    Started at 10, stopped about 9 months later cos I hate my guitar teacher (didn't have a guitar at home so stopped playing altogether).

    Bought my first guitar on my 15th birthday with money I had saved up from my paperround. I pretty much played powerchordss for a year until...

    Had my first guitar lesson on my 16th birthday. It wasn't a planned thing to be on my 16th birthday, just took a whole year to hunt down a guitar teacher in the local area. Had lessons for 2 years.

    And now I'm nearly 21.

    I tell people I've been playing for 6 years, although really I knew the basics before that. Besides, I'm a pretty average player (I SUCK at improvisation) so saying I've been playing more than 6 years just makes it sound like I should be better than I am.



    ...and that's my life story :)
