My fun Christmas gift

I’ve been mentioning to a few people that I wanted to learn to play the guitar. I even looked online for a used guitar, or a cheap new one to get me started. Well, Carrie is very good at listening to folk’s casual conversation and remembering it come gift time.

Yes, you guessed it. She and Brian got me a new guitar for Christmas! I was SO surprised, and totally excited. Isn’t it a beaut? A Fender Starcaster. (Daryl says Fender guitars are the best.) It came with a lesson DVD on tuning, techniques and chording. I took my first lesson this morning and had a second practice session after church. Boy, are my fingertips sore! But I can play three chords: D5, E5, and A5. The teacher said “You are now a guitar player!”

I’m sure you will all be lining up to get tickets to my concerts in a few weeks.

    I think Fender was really known for their electric guitars but they do make very good ones.
