Kowinkidink!

I am 57, with arthritis (rheumatoid, including my hands), and I have been thinking about picking up my guitar for the first time since the 1970's. I have been a musician since I was ten, but my primary interest was classical, and I played the clarinet and the sax. Arthritis prevents me from playing those anymore, but I think the guitar would be good exercise for the fingers.

I still have the guitar I bought in 1971. I will probably need to replace the strings, but it is probably in pretty good shape. What little I know now is self-taught. I still have the guitar book I was working with back then.

Good luck with it, and please keep us posted!
