Resurrecting this thread as my wife was about to sell her old guitar she doesn't play anymore..for some reason I said keep it and I'll have it as I don't have to study in the evenings anymore. I'm 37 and have never picked one up in my life!
Any good places to start? I'm guessing apps/youtube is the place to go now? Any help appreciated!

It's free and he is good. Don't be put off how hard it is before you can play something well. People give up too quick.

OK. Fair enough. Here it is and it's not great playing, I know that.

Well played sir

It's not great, I know that. That was done during lockdown, posted it a while after. Guard was from Holland. I just searched it online.

Luckily I come from a musical family, even the sewing machine was a Singer.

Can't stand Sultan's of swing but that good mate.

Geetars cool with the City........

I quite like the track, but I get that it can grate. Very good backing track for training purposes, scale runs, pentatonics, free forming (lol), etc. I am very limited. Oasis stuff is brilliant for my level, so easy. Roses too, some anyway. I don't practice now, not picked that beautiful axe up for a year. Nuts. Blackstar amp, excellent. Boss multi-effects unit, a bit shit.

Well done mate.
I used to play and sing that at gigs.
Can I suggest taking some of that reverb off, as you know Knofler played "dry" without any reverberation.
