How do I join?

How good do I need to be?
If you are able to play a handful of chords, maybe a scale or two, have played with others before, tune your own guitar (tuners are welcome!) you will be just fine. The pieces are divided into a whole range of parts that means there is space for most abilities. If you feel you are not ready to join us yet, or you have never played with others before perhaps try our weekly sessions instead to give you a chance to play with others more?
