In the beginning:

I started playing at age 8 on guitar , age 7 on Piano - a player piano that I would watch the keys depress as the rolls would play great classic songs like Autumn Leaves, Who’s Sorry Now, Ode to Joy, and many many ragtime tunes. I would try to memorize the key movements follow them as the rolls would play and eventually I could play along with the Player Rolls and mprovise along with them. Then I got my guitar, made the note connections between the piano and guitar and would play the guitar along while I pumped the player piano rolls. Needless to say I had a good Vascular Pulmonary system by age 10.

Since I had no formal instruction - only a Mel Bay Level 3 book and a Paganini (the Red One) scales Book, I didn’t know much about guitar - it was given to me tuned to Drop D and that’s how I learned to play it. I didn’t learn to play standard tuning until I was 11 Although I did know I was playing a non-standard tuning within the first month of having the guitar - I didn’t care - I like the Drop D Tuning. Plus, when I was 10 and got Black Sabbath Master Of Reality, I was all set to learn it.
