Guitar Aqusition Syndrome?

I practice between 2 and 4 hours just about every day, and a lot more on the weekends. I know a heck of a lot more than I did when I first picked it up, but I haven't really started to study any complete songs yet.

Let's define "play" here ...

Do I really play the violin? Well there was a time when my own mother wouldn't agree with that. And once my brother hid my violin in a closet on a high shelf so I wouldn't be able to ... play.

But yes, I suppose one could say that I play the violin ....

Oh, and I beat on a djembe, but who knows what the hell I'm really doing.

I play percussion, my favorite is marimba. I wouldn't say that I play drums, in the sense that I am terrible at drumset. Concert drums or multi percussion I'm not so bad at though. I've been playing for 7 years, going to major in percussion performance this fall.

I started playing guitar in about '58 or 9. My first real Guitar was a Harmony Meteor. It was fun, but then I realized that both Chet Atkins and George Harrison played Gretsch Country Gentlemen.(I knew that!

)so I just hadda get me one of those!

Then just for fun I built my own classical guitar in '87. I was going to fly to Spain one week-end and get one already made, but a craftsman-type friend suggested that I make my own! It WAS fun....it even plays!

....took longer than a weekend though....more like sixteen months!

Longer, considering the extra months spent researching and studying!

Play guitar and piano. Studied jazz composition and performance for my undergrad, but all that seems like it was another lifetime.
