Hi,
I started playing a guitar when I was 6 years old. I was shone a few chords by a neighbor lady. I got a book to learn how to fret my chords the rest I learned by myself!
I got to the point where I could pick a pretty good lick, all by ear. I started with
a very small guitar.Brand, who knows??

I now play a PSR-2000. But Yet today I wish I had learned to read music!
If you do learn to play by ear be sure to learn your chords! That will help you when you want to turn the arranger off, and just play the piano!
When I first started to learn the arranger I used the full chords!
I usualy set it so I can use either full chord or one finger chord. the only time I use a one finger chord is when something requires my left hand fast!
If your new at this and don't want to spend to much to start, maybe a good used might be the way to go. You have to know if music will hold your interest! So people that I now are on fire for a KB! Six months later they loose interest! They've went out an bought a very expenseive board! Now they can't sell without taking a great loss!I rambeled on here to long. Hope it helps.
All the best,
Nobby
