Ronin Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Just joined the Gibson family this year. Bought a 2017 Les Paul Classic (Green Ocean Burst) and a 2017 Les Paul Faded (Worn Cherry). 48 years old and picked up the guitar about a year ago. Played in high school, but never got beyond parroting. Now that I have more time on my hands I want to learn how to play properly. Hope to meet some members here and learn about Gibsons. I don't have a Photobucket account, but if someone would assist, I would gladly share some pics of my new guitars. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tx-ogre Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Welcome aboard Ronin. I went through Marine Corps boot camp in San Diego and have visited there several times since. Great city. A lot of great people here who are a wealth of knowledge. Enjoy your stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, and welcome, sorry for my late reply, I have been practicing like mad, the guitar is a very addictive instrument. I too, am 48, and I took up the guitar as an older beginner in Feb 2016. With me, I was lucky enough to find an excellent on line guitar teacher, downloaded all his lessons and have learned how to play over 40 AC/DC songs, just yet rhythm part, lead is too hard for me. When I made the decision to commit myself to learning the guitar, I also pulled the trigger on a 2016 Gibson Les Paul Studio, later I would get a 2017 Les Paul Classic like yours but in the satin fireburst finish, an awesome guitar. Enjoy your guitar journey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I love AC/DC too lol. That's an excellent idea, I have studied a bit of musical theory, but not a lot, only enough to be able to play the songs I have learned to play, I do need to study music theory in greater detail.
