Thanks Rod, see above in my response to Peter. I’ve been playing 8 years this spring starting at the ripe old age of 53 and this is probably the first year I have finally started to sound musical. 1-2 years ago, my fingerstyle playing was pretty much a “train wreck” for any audience.
The solo fingerstyle journey certainly has its peaks and plateaus.
