Hello!!!!

Hola a todos!!

Empece a tocar la guitarra, al menos intentarlo, hace ya unos meses, hacía Septiembre del año pasado. Me considero bastante novato en esto pero espero ser de ayuda para aquellos que empiezan en este mundo y quieran aprender a tocar unas canciones que no sean muy complicadas.

Hi people!!!!
