One more thought, you're never too old to learn another instrument.

I hope to save up some money to buy electric guitar soon. don't realy enjoy playing acoustic so it's mostly just sitting there...

I started on piano when I was about 9, but Little League interfered ultimately, though I had to also play piano as a Music Major in College, along with a string, a brass, and a woodwind.

So while my main instrument is guitar for the last 50 years, I have also played trapset drums, and saxophone, and dabbled with trumpet, trombone, and even cello when I had to play a string section instrument.

I have more facility on sax and drums than any of the others (except guitar), but for the last 20 years or so have pretty much just concentrated on guitar as my main instrument.

That takes enough work just to keep my chops up on guitar, at this age.

I sometimes wish I had kept at saxophone more, as I prefer it as a solo jazz voice over the sound of the guitar in jazz, however music is music and I just can't see all that work to get the kind of facility I'd want on sax. Besides, my teeth are a bit sketchy for maintaining solid chops for the future on a wind instrument.

I play acoustic and electric guitar. Not excellent on either, but can basically play the chords of any tune.

Getting into theory.

Time to be my classical band self: I play clairnet, flute, most mallet instruments, a little bit of alto sax., piano, guitar, and harp (a bit).
