Hello John, great to see you - normally you just get to see latest builds in pictures.

What a character. You'll be right at home here!

Hey, John.  I started playing late in life too.  And look at ME!!!   I am already mediocre.  And having a real good time.  

Did you look at Daddy Longlegs on youtube to see if you think you resemble him?

Thanks for the complement.  I only wish I was even an average player.  I do have a Wood Shop and I'm in the process of building Cigar Box Guitars.  I also wish I'd started playing when I was a child rather than an old man.  Encourage all children to play an instrument and get rhythm.  It will make a better world.

You look kind of like a great player/ teacher who went by Daddy Longlegs.   He was from ?  Maybe Belgium.  He kind of disappeared.
