Yes willow everytime I come back to this thread it's sounding more and more complicated! Maybe I should stick to Gayles suggestion.
I didn't think there was going to be so much stuff involved. I thought I just went to a shop picked up a guitar and one of those things you plug it into to make it sound really loud to annoy the neighbours ...... and start strumming
Not only that I also play left handed, does it make any difference?
