Hi Tony
Your MCI should give you years of valuable service. It is a very nice guitar, and has great tone. You are fortunate to have a group of players in your neck of the woods who meet and play regularly together. Many of them are exceptional players, so you may be able to fix up some lessons with those of them who teach.
Show Pro D10 (amber) 8 + 6, MSA Signature XL D10 (redburst) 9 + 6, Sho~Bud D10 (sunburst) Pro 111 8 + 6, Emmons D10 Push Pull - (black) 8+5, Zumsteel D10 (blue) 8 + 8, Hudson pedal resonator, 10 string lap steel. Telonics, Peavey & Webb amps,

Hello Tony,
I would urge you to get to the Gartcosh meeting of the SSGW.
If you're a total newbie,as I was,this can be a bewildering instrument,but I'd guarantee that any problem or query that you're having will be solved by the great bunch of guys that attend. Plus, you'll hear some totally inspirational playing. And, the banter is outstanding.
Hopefully see you at the end of the month.
GFI Ultra keyless S10 4+5 Emmon's setup + Sigler, Li'l Izzy, Hilton volume pedal, Roland Cube 80gx, Joyo American Sound Pre-amp, Behringer VD400 Delay Pedal, Peterson Strobo Plus HD and a brace of bars, Ben's, Ezzee-Slide, Pearse, BJS, SIT nickel strings.
