    My teen son wants to learn how to play guitar. That's one of the instruments that I don't know how to play well - probably why he picked it. : ) I love how you have open questions to be able to help people in their musical adventures! What a great way to teach!

    Wow, this is quite a detailed lens for guitar enthusiasts. I just play some basic chords, but hope to someday (when I have more time) learn a little more.

    I tried to learn to play, but my fingers fell off :-(
    I DID manage to learn Smoke on the Water in the process though!
    Thanks for the awesome lens!

    It looks like that's a picture of you in the intro module - I love it when people use personal photos in their lenses! Like Johnny says below, it really portrays your passion for the topic.

    Hi Martin,
    GREAT LENS, will introduce it to my grandson who is learning to play, it should be a big help for him as he is learning on his own.
    Thanks for commenting on my lens it's much appreciated.

    Yeah, this is a good lens, with a lot of useful info. I have played since I was 8 or so, and I can really appreciate what you say about finding a balance between theory and just playing.
    And thanks for the nice comment on my first lens - you were the first one there!

    Ah Music Theory the essence of the Universe, math with feeling. Great lens Martin
    Don't forget about those thirdless power chords they take us in so many directions.

    great stuff, this will help me not to give up on my guitar!
  • writernewbie Dec 16, 2009 @ 5:53 pm | delete
    Nice job, Mart. You covered quite a bit here, definately enough for a guitar enthusiast to learn somethin new after having read your lens. I would be interested in seeing a lens about your songwriting in the future, and maybe even one about your advertising jingles? It sounds like you have plenty of talent to go around! (And thank you for the very nice compliment you left on my lens.) :)

    Your lens is very thorough. I might have to dust off my guitar and start playing again! :)

    Thank you all for stopping by and your nice comments.
    Mystic, a little pain in the beginning is a common and normal thing; however, it does go away for good after a while. : ))
