The guitar is the easiest instrument to play and the hardest to play well.
I've got 50 different tunings in the guitar.
I was definitely not one of those kids prodigy guitar players.

It takes a lifetime and a half to master the classical guitar.
Dime knew the importance of every aspect of playing the guitar.
