Hey guys, guess i am a noob here, but a veteran of many a guitar forum, especially Guitar Zone (formally GTU).

Anyways, My name is Rick, and i have been playing guitar for around 21 years, and now make my living as a guitar teacher, in Adelaide Australia, Where i have lived for the last 5 years, after emigrating there from West Sussex UK.

I am a bit of a guitar nerd, as i don't just like playing them, i enjoy constructing guitars from parts i find on ebay. I used to do a lot of buying and selling guitars on ebay, and found some real treasures.

My taste in music is pretty eclectic, and believe there is good and bad in all genres of music, "yes even pop and country" lol. But my prefered choice in listing is Classic Rock, Prog Rock, Blues, and Folk music.

I Spend all of my week playing and teaching guitar, so at the weekends i play drums in a 60s Rock and Roll band, which is a great outlet, and enormous fun.

Ok thats me basicly , oh i am Married and a Grandfather, great to meet you all.




Rick.

Hey Rick, welcome to the forum.
Hope you post some of your music and share us some of your knowledge about the guitar and music.

I too live out of the country I grew up in. A bit scary as we get older. Hey, come to think of it, I'm a Grandfather, too! :)

Great!

There is a chat box on the bottom of the forum, stop in and chat. Sometimes we actually chat. When we see someone online.
