Just discovered this site, and have learned some cool stuff already.
I’ve been playing guitar (quite badly, really) for a lo-o-o-ong time, and have been banging my head against ‘The Wall’ for years.
Anyway, since I stumbled across Active Melody, I’ve found a few footholds to help me start climbing again!
Happy Days!
Pete.

Hey Pete, welcome to the bar!  Hopefully you’ll improve your picking and stop banging your head against the wall - haha.  Anyway, welcome aboard.

Thanks Brian.
Y’know… when I was younger (blah-de-blah etc), and I used to play in ‘Beat Groups’ before falling into the evil clutches of Rock Bands, I used to learn a lot of stuff from other guitarists, just by being in their company and picking up little bits & pieces from them.
Since those days are all but gone (my buddy and I still let it rip now and again in our little Garage Band), it’s really great to start learning again courtesy of this excellent site.  I’ve forgotten a lot of the stuff that I used to play, but some of it’s coming back thanks to watching some of your tutorials.
More power to you Brian!
Pete.
