My latest YouTube video has over 100 views in three weeks! Am I going to be an internet sensation? What if I presented myself as a pretty 19-year-old girl?

My thanks to Vanny and DJ for getting this out there. It's quite "organic." Its my first ever "guitar only" YouTube video, and I think it's pretty good. Vanny and I did not have to argue about the pictures we used, beause we went with the original video--me blabbing away after two beers and then playing the song. Let me know if you like it. I can do more "guitar only" videos if people like them.

Find a teacher! It's not that hard to learn the basics.

Wow that was really awesome, I really like the way you played it, is it really hard to play the guitar without the striker? Wish you could get 1m views

Is a "striker" what some call a pick and what others call a plecturn?

@FaruMesh In my childhood days, I imitated a folk singer named Gordon Lightfoot. He used a lot of "Travis picking" in his music, so I learned it early.

@TheHorse is it plecturn or plectrum not sure, but I really enjoyed the fingerplaying, it's never easy I guess

Watched the video and enjoyed it.

You must love music very much, saw a number of musical instruments around you. I'm only starting to learn to play the ukulele now. Better late than never.

@TheHorse Thanks for the info. Guess my next hobby would be to learn to play the guitar.

If you can play the uke, you can play guitar. The uke is generally tuned with A as the top string. With guitar, the top string is E. But the positions for chords is the same.

Thanks, Judy. I had to send my Indian thug friends to tie Vanny up so she wouldn't put cornball Pixaboy images on this one.
