Welcome Ken, couldn't help but notice that you have a S-10 Leonard. I started out on one and still have it. It was a good one to learn on and how to make repairs. Enjoy this site, I sure do.

Welcome Ken- you already can contribute- it's very common that I find something that I can use when giving a lesson to someone that has not been playing long. We all figure out things differently and those without a lot of training frequently find cool and unusual ways to do things- so feel free to chime in anytime!
