Not sure if any of you guys remember me, I posted a bit here a few years ago when I was trying to pick up the guitar - I got really frustrated with lessons and quit for a while. For some reason about a year ago I just picked it up without any extra formal education and haven't been able to put it down since. It was weird how I got so into it too, but suffice to say I learned like 2 powerchords on my own, thought those were the coolest things, realized they make up a lot of classic rock, then I started learning some more complicated rhythms and well, I'm just having a blast playing. Been doing a lot of blues lately, currently Texas Style blues with the walking bassline ala SRV but much clumsier 
Anyway, I'm frankensteining an old Memphis guitar I just picked up off of craigslist for $50 (tele model - feels really good), and building a bit of a modern version of a '57 Champ from scratch. I thought I'd hit the forum for some tips on these things and thought some of you might be interested in my progress so stay tuned for some pics/vids and notes (and I'll be searching for similar threads from you guys). Hope everyone has been doing well since the last time I was here :dude
