Bottom line... Chet Atkins is the reason I picked up the guitar in the first place. My dad had a couple of his old records and I would listen to them and reproduce perfectly what I heard... ok just kidding. I would listen to them and think, "How many fingers does he have?"

Chet Atkins is the one on the left. To me he is just so stinking cool when he plays the guitar. He makes it seem so easy. I never expected to be a Chet Atkins but I appreciated the possibility of what could be achieved when just an ordinary guy decided to be good at something.

Thanks Chet. And thanks dad.
