My first car was a 1969 Plymouth Road Runner 383 4 speed. Bought it in 1975 when I was in high school.

If I find a part that is tough for me, I play it over and over slowly, and then speed it up gradually. I have been known to play the same section 50 or ...

Sign me up for this one!

I would like to have that natural talent to just pick up the guitar and play, but since I don't. I just say to myself (if it was easy everybody would do it). I just had to make up my mind to complete a song. Focus and practice, practice, practice works for me.
