    In Seattle the late 80s I used to rehearse at The Blue Room on Capitol Hill. In the room was a Soldano belonging to Mike’s good friend Tommy Martin. I’d never seen one before and was intrigued. If you look at the list, it was Soldano #1.

    There's alot of great material in this video. I love when you talk about taking criticism or rejection and bouncing back. I'm experiencing this in a different way trying to get my channel going. You want people to like it and be on board right away. But it's not like that at all, you have to do the hard work constantly and just keep going. And music has to stay personally rewarding I think. And hopefully people will come around. Your honesty and knowledge are both powerful Tim. And I think this is why people enjoy your channel so much. I really want to take the time to dive into your masterclass soon. Thank you....

    I bought a PRS Custom 24 SE 25th Anniversary Edition. I had it set up years ago with low action. It's utterly ridiculous! No other guitar that I own or have owned (that's around 15 guitars in total) has had such low action, and it still doesn't fret out, there's no buzz and it sounds really good!

    Tim, You are just saying about lowering the action so as guitar plays itself, I bought an American Les Paul Standard back in the early eighties and the frets were so low as was the action and it did seem to play itself as you say. Not heard to many talk about that sort of stuff but I think it is really interesting and it can so contributes to how you feel when playing. You need to know a good luthier though. Thanks for the vid and hard work put in at the gig. Sweetwater should get to the UK.

    I'm a shamelessly admitted Sweetwater fanboy, it's not so much drinking the kool-aid as having access to so much pro gear you can't always get from a mom and pop store. I think they've done as much for the amateur music industry as many of the professional artists themselves. In the 70's and earlier ALL we had were whatever stores may be within our local area and the limitations of the gear available were often times pretty severe!

      I can personally vouch for Tim's Masterclass - the new Beginner's' course is outstanding, especially for adults who like being treated as adults. We're very lucky that Tim has turned his eye toward education. Lessons from a man with nothing to prove. Outstanding.

      @@DonSambrook Do you think it's suitable for someone who is *really* new to playing? I imagined it was for ahh, more intermediate players. I can't agree enough with your statement about how lucky we are he's interested in educating.
      I feel so ignorant about music. As I get older and look more closely at who played on and produced the records I love, I see over and over it's the same small circle of people and one name that pops up over and over and over is Tim's. His musical footprint has been enormous but incredibly gentle.

    • @DonSambrook

      @@OTOss8 I do. Guitar has been a Covid project for me. I signed up for Tim's Masterclass early on - before he had a beginner section. What was available before was interesting, but above my abilities. I'd do other things online and come back for a Tim course periodically. When the beginner lessons arrived, I dove in and have been making very good progress that really feels like I'm getting somewhere. I tried a bunch of other online beginner courses that never clicked.
      Tim has a trial period, so you can try it yourself and see if it works for you. Tim works theory in as you go but if you want to dive into something specifically on that topic, I recommend Gracie Terzian's videos. Great teacher.
      Final thing I can recommend as an old starter - I'm 66 now. If playing still hurts, you just have to keep pushing until it doesn't. Most people who started playing as kids either don't remember how much it hurt or maybe it isn't as painful for kids. It hurts like hell - until it doesn't. Getting past the pain is critical for progress. I'm already forgetting how much it used to hurt :)
