                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Wow,<br>Thanks for all of the kind reply's.  Looking forward to expanding my guitar learning experience here on this forum.  <br><br>As for the Martin DX1, no it was not in fact the Christmas gift from the wife.  After a couple of months of playing the Walmart special (Silvertone...which did not sound too bad) and finding that I was really putting some effort into learning the instrument I traded it in for the Martin DX1.  Well actually I traded it in for a Washburn electro acoustic but found the sound to be a bit soft so I exchanged it for the Martin.<br><br>The wife was very supportive in getting a guitar that I would like to keep for a number of years instead of just buying something that I may want to trade up again in a year of so.<br><br>As for myself learning the guitar I am in fact taking lessons and trying to absorb all of the great info on the web.  I am not wanting to learn lead but rather want to lead but want to become good at picking out the turn of a song a figuring out how to play it.  Basically just wanting to play for the kids out in the backyard and for myself as a form of relaxation.<br><br>I am looking forward to many discussions on this board.<br><br>Take care<br><br>Richard]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Hi Richard, welcome to GN! Wow, wish I'd had a Martin as a starter guitar - I wonder how many people were put off playing because they bought a cheap guitar with the strings  mile away from the fretboard? Learning something new's always hard - must be more pleasurable though, with a nice guitar to learn on. Good luck!!!<br><br> :D  :D  :D <br><br>Vic]]></content:encoded>
