I'm a latecomer to the joys of the geetar, having been a bassist for 20-odd years and a keyboard player before that. One of my kids started learning and I joined him. He's better than me by a long chalk...and he's 9 years old!
I was brought up on a diet of 80s indie, post-punk and psychobilly and still reference a lot of that in my playing. I joined up for UG mostly cos the bands I like hardly seem to feature, so I hope to post a bunch of tabs and chords for some of those listed underneath!
