Music Season

So, now that the tri off season is in full swing, I have shifted my training to from swim, bike, run to guitar, giutar, guitar. Hopefully with some climbing mixed in during the fall and winter months. Instead of spending my 2 hours a day on my bike or in the pool I am spending 2 hours a day in my music room beating on my guitars. It will take a while to get the touch back after not playing very much the last year or so, but it feels really good to just sit down and play. Here is a picture of my baby. It's a 2002 Martin D-42.

I started playing in 2001 with one of my dad's old guitars. It was a 1975 Alverez Dove. A beautiful copy of the vintage Gibson Dove, but it had better tone than any Gibson Dove I have played. Anyway, the Martin was the firts guitar that I ever bought. I figured that if I was going to do it, I should do it right. Since picking up this guitar I have played many other high end guitars, and I am yet to find one that can match this one for full range tone.

Here's so more good guitar pickin'. I can't play this style at all, but it sounds so cool. Again, Jerry Reed and Chet Atkins pickin' Jerry's Breakdown.
