Not young but healthy. I have a few instruments most of them really old. To dating back to the 50s. But I first learned to play, Boogie Woogie, Buddy Holly, surf music were my life. We performed like at school assemblies small amount of my other stage stuff a few bars by the time I was 15. Things changed, I didn't really start playing much until metal 70s in a 3-piece Blues Band. I played bass in that band. Right now I'm retired and have plenty of time and use it a lot in my studio playing. Working to improve my singing abilities while I play and not look at my guitar.
