Hi there, I'm Ben from Newcastle England, I'm a music student and play quite a few instruments, but am keen to improve my fingerpicking. This seems like a great place to start!

Hi Ben from Adelaide, Australia. Plenty of fingerpicking tunes in Target to take on and plenty of people here to help. What other instruments do you play?
Welcome aboard and enjoy!

Ben,
Hi from Sydney.
I love fingerpicking and here are some great lessons on the technique and specific songs in the TG song library.
I think you'll love it here.
I'm looking forward to learning more about you.

HI Ben

from Chas in New Zealand although originally a little bit North of the border from you. God I miss Newcastle Brown Exhibition Ale. Good to have a Geordie amongst us, I don't know of any The Toon supporters here yet.
Good call joining us here this is fast becoming the number one place to learn, all you ever need is here and then some.
Don't be stranger to the Forum a lot happens here.
regards
Chas

Hey Ben! Welcome from Southern California. Like Tony, I am interested in what instruments you play. Also, what sort of music do you like? Lots of fingerpicking songs to choose from here, so you are heading in the right direction.....

Ben- Big welcome to TG from Portland, Oregon in the Colonies. We're glad to have you with us!
I've been to Newcastle (upon Tyne?) on my way to Scotland. I remember some really beautiful bridges (I'm a civil engineer so things like bridges catch my eye! lol!). Starkly beautiful country.
I hope you enjoy this site and it helps you on your musical journey! This is a great place with really great people so jump in and participate! But most of all, have fun!
Happy playin' and cheers! :cheer:
