Hi, hello, hooray,

I couldn't find a "welcome thread" of any sort, so I'm popping in to say hi, and to introduce myself to the MPN Guitar forum.

Lifetime guitar player, writer, band member/leader, and all around guitar junkie.
I play also bass guitar, keys, drums, and even the ukulele.
I sing pretty good too.


The day job got in the way of me pursuing full-time musical employment, but I have been blessed to have been in some great combos and live music gigs in my lifetime, most recently and frequently in the past 11 years.

Full on retired from the rat-race now, and dividing time between spousal-directed house projects, making music, giving lessons, improving the music room and recording gear, and thinning down my collection of instruments.

Glad to be aboard, and looking forward to meeting everyone in the boards.

:)

Welcome, Sparqy.  I'm Sharkman.  I think you're going to like this place, because we all like guitars, guitarists, guitar music, all that fun stuff.  Plus, when you ask a serious question, you get really good answers from people who have a lot of knowledge and experience with music.  No dumbass replies by people who think they're funny, but they aren't.

LOL. I retired 3 years earlier than I planned and thinning down my collection of instruments got me through those pre-Social Security years. :) (And people thought I was wasting my money buying those instruments.)

Welcome aboard, and my respect on calling your space a "Music Room." (My own preferred term for my own Music space, because calling it a Studio would be hubris.)

In my case, it really would be inappropriate to call it a studio.
There is recording equipment in here, yes.
An old Tascam Neo 2488 for multi-track, and a Zoom H2N for recording practices and one-take band songs.

But it really is more of a music room.
Place to practice, and to hold all the instruments (drums, guitars, amps, bass, uke, mics, mic stands, etc).
And the guitar work bench is in here.


🙂
