I'll freely admit I'm good for about 3 chords and a cloud of dust myself. Was good enough for the girls when I was in my 20's, good enough for my kids now.
Just put away the Seagull M6 for the night, bought it a couple weeks ago for a "beat around" guitar. I've also got a vintage Harmony made southern jumbo(1973 S1221) that is off getting repaired.
So who plays, what's your favorite guitar?

I wish i could. Enough to sit around a campfire at least.
But alas. I’m left handed. Same with golf. Never knew any lefty to learn from.

Poorly. Some piano, many years of percussion, I build and play Hammered Dulcimer, but my weapon of choice is a harmonica.

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.

I do. I play (jam) with another fella who plays a mean lap dulcimer. We play at an Italian restaurant every Tue. evening.........They feed us. Also jam on Sun. mornings at a Flea Market. Mainly play Appalachian Music....fiddle tunes. Once in a while a lady comes and sings, then it changes to Folk, Country, Bluegrass, and a few other genre thrown in. I mainly play a Crafters of Tennessee Mahogany guitar, but if the crowd is going to be loud then I bring a hand crafted Gernandt that Bob Gernandt made for me. Lots of projection out of that one. I do have a couple of lawsuit Takamine guitars. A very nice maple 6 string and a mahogany 12 string. I love the sound of mahogany. I'm not the greatest player any more, age and hand cramps, but I love to play and love the sound of good sounding wood and steel. 3 chords will sure let you play a lot of songs Cowboy Tim.

I've got that site bookmarked, use it all the time. I mean where else would you find Ray Wylie Hubbard tabs? I've got an old "Mel Bay" lesson book a snagged at a garage sale YEARS ago, been telling myself that if I actually buckle down and do the lessons in it this summer, I'll get myself a new guitar to celebrate.

Yes. Favorites are a couple of Taylors and a Rainsong. Though funny-looking, the carbon fiber Rainsong is the most stable guitar I've ever had, by far. It can go from above 10,000 ft. and dry down to a couple hundred feet and 90% humidity, then back, and not change tune.

Still on the learning curve for others.

Yeah I play. I prefer Fender electrics and Martin acoustics...although I own a McPherson that's an outstanding instrument.

Mostly bass now, but I've bene known to bend a string now and again.
To those who dont play, I appear to be terrific. For those who do play, they know I pretty much cant.
I can whistle better than most, and wish I'd given the harp more serious attention as a kid.
Quit giving in inch by inch then looking back to lament the mile behind ya and wonder how to preserve those few feet left in front of ya. They'll never stop until they're stopped. That's a fact.
