Willem, What a chance to be between to great players huh? Thanks my friend!
Dermot, Thank you. I appreciate you comments.
Vanessa, You have been such an inspiration and always helpful, it was an honor for me to sign by you. The speech was easy because it came from the heart. Thanks!
RicksPick, Thank you for the positive feedback!
Scott, I love the chord solo of Imagine. I wish I had more time to practice it but since I had the banner I figured I would go with what I have at the moment. Thanks!
Tom, I had some hurdles posting this beacause I had to create a YT channel then upload it to that, then copy and paste back to the "TG Banner" thread. Since my technology knowledge is stuck somewhere in the 1990's, I had to get help from my friends Suzi and Jason. Thanks for the nice words.
Chris, Thank you for the encouraging words, as always! I wanted to sign somewhere other than my living room so the Taylor idea seemed like a good place since so many people on the site either play, or hope to play one someday. I hung out and played some guitars for awhile. It was awesome!
Abilio, I appreciate your nice comments. I saw your name on there!
Suzi, Thank you again for you patience with me!
There is a lesson on the chord solo for "Imagine". It's not too difficult because it's so slow. I had started on it awhile ago, then put it aside. When I got the banner, I did the "play only that song for three days straight" thing. I will get it cleaned up but under the circumstances, I wanted to play that particular song for this occasion...The Taylor people are awesome! Very friendly, open, welcoming. I had nothing set up but knew from being in there a number of times, that they would be fine with it. They will let you video the factory tour, whatever you want. Dennis posted a video of his tour quite awhile ago and so did Damian (d-dog). I don't know if those are still around somewhere? Thanks again.
Al, Living so close to the factory is both good and bad! I go out there maybe once a month and play some $5,000 - $6,000 dollar guitars which is incredible! Then go back to reality and leave knowing I can't afford anything close to that! I do have a birthday coming up in May, my wife is giving me a greenlight on something, just not sure of the price range yet. They sell the showroom/giftshop models that you saw in the video for a pretty big discount. I'm hoping for one of those....we'll see! Thanks.
Kevin, Thank you for the positive feedback! I appreciate it!
Jason, Thank you for your help! A Taylor tour, guitar playing and beer? Hummm, let's see.... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Stuart, Thank you for the comment on "Imagine". The banner leap-frogged quite a few people in the midwest, it will have to double back for sure.
Bob, I always appreciate your support and encouragement! Thanks.
