- Hello everyone. I just started flatpicking April 17th this year and I love it. I've played 5-string banjo for 11 years bluegrass and clawhammer style. I also sing and play in the gospel group "His Own". I enjoy listening to so many great pickers everyone so far has taught me something. Just a word of encouragement to others, don't give up and don't worry that maybe you feel like you started late. I just started on guitar and have sang and played at church, for friends, family, adopt a senior nights etc. Don't be afraid to get out and play with others it will help you and you will be a blessing.
I am interested in helping, jamming , and socializing.
As I'm new to flatpick guitar, friends and any advice would be most welcome.
I just started working through Flat Picking Essentials Series Volume One (great stuff!)

So what you are talking about here Jon, is not what I started the thread for( but it IS a nice aside!) You NEED to know what your humidity is at in your house were your axe lives. That is what the Hygrometer is for. There are all kinds of threads ev…
I've never had a gauge that I've used for any of my guitars, but what I have done which only costs a few dollars is to get a travel soap box and a sponge to use as a small humidifier that I keep in my case.
It's works really well and fits perfectly…
Really nice. Great to see someone slowing down and being tasty.
I have to admit I do like D'addarios, once I get my callouses back I may move up to ej17's
