Hello from the northern Atlanta 'burbs

So here I am. Returned to guitar after a 10 year layoff in January. Grabbed a Martin 000-15sm to get started with. Dove head first into the learning process via an on line community, leading a jam club, did an open mic, etc.

Really like the J45 sound and feel when I find a good one. Short scale and slope design fits me. Think it will make a tre excellent flat picker/rock and roller/country blues box.

 

On the hunt for a True Vintage model, pre baked top. Or a Banner J42 re-issue, although the large neck gives me pause. Played one at Maple Street, A/B'ed it against a 12 fret clear D-28. The sales guy(who is also one of my instructors) and I both agreed I played the Banner better then the Martin. And the sound was more what I was looking for.

 

Thanks

Welcome, Scott.

 

Sounds like an awesome journey you are on, and a quest worthy of writing about and sharing along the way.

 

Looking forward to it, sir.
