A recent project here has been setting up a home “digital recording studio”. It is the first time I’ve ventured into recording since I got rid of my old Tascam four track recorder.

I was thinking about my guitar playing — and how it has not gotten much better or worse since I was about 17 — and was reminded of this great essay called “How To Play Guitar” by David Fair (of the band Half Japanese).

I think everyone who wants to play guitar should read this essay at least once. It really gives you a whole new perspective on the instrument.

Truly, making music can be a lot of fun. Even if your passion is greater than technical talent.
