. I've got a Washburn D10SDL guitar which I love.Hello from Brussels
Hi, I'm originally from Montreal, Canada, but now living in Brussels, Belgium. I played classical guitar as a child (9-13) but then became "too cool" - an immature decision which I will always regret (but at least I can finger pick and read music). After that I barely touched a guitar until recently - I've been playing again for about 1 year now, so I guess I'm still a beginner on the cusp of intermediate . I've got a Washburn D10SDL guitar which I love.
. I've got a Washburn D10SDL guitar which I love.Hi Gihan from Australia. Been following your thread on female artists so you're obviously not afraid to jump right in which is great. I've spent some time in Brussels, nice place. I guess it's safe to assume you are a French speaker. I found Montreal felt like Europe to me when I was there. Glad to have another lady on the forum to balance the opinions a little. Welcome.
English speaker actually, born in Toronto, I just keep finding myself in places where they speak French :S ...which is actually cool. Once I get a few English songs down (I know quite a few now, but play none of them exceptionally) I'd like to try a few French ones. But since singing and playing at the same time are still quite a challenge for me, I'll be sticking with English for now. 
Gihan - It really is great to have you on board. You're already balancing some of the testosterone around here. And we seem to have some favourite artist in common which is great. I can't wait to see your first post. See you around the forum. If you're anything like me you'll love it around here - so much to learn, so much inspiration and fun too.

Welcome, Gihan. I'm sure you will enjoy it here. Your experience is similar to a lot of ours. Are you still interested in playing classical guitar?
That Washburn is a very nice guitar, with workmanship, materials, and tone that are hard to beat in its price range.
