I have a Classic Paloma Admira and I taught myself to play(over a long period of time) just by hearing...this means...I can't play by chords, don't know chords except the basic 4...and don't play on a tuned guitar.
so whenever I play I get something close...like a different variation of the thing I'm playing...but I can play anything that way.my technique works better with a bass...which appearently I have a natural feel to.
And I'm a pianist...haven't been much of a vocalist so all my recorded stuff was piano or guitar solo instrumentals.
