Another student of Mr. Noad

When I was in high school a good number of years ago, my sister dated a guy in a rock band, he was the lead guitar. He and my sister found an old guitar so I could learn how to play.
Well, the thing was old and the neck was warped with a 1/2" action. Needless to say I could never get anything to sound well, I just couldn't press hard enough.
A couple of years later I saw a gentleman on TV, PBS, playing guitar in one of his TV lessons. I had never seen anyone hold a guitar like that and the music was so interesting. He wasn't just strumming chords. He was actually playing individual notes! His name was Frederick Noad.
I ordered his book and took his TV lesson. I later took private lessons. I'm getting back into it and am looking forward to learning again. Thank you Mr Noad.
