[musictlk] Playing The Guitar

[Johnny Russo]

Hi Brianna,
	I've played guitar for 30 years.  I am totally blind and read
Braille.  Yes, playing guitar can affect your sensitivity for reading
Braille, but not enough to worry about it, or stop playing guitar.  Have
fun!

Hello Everyone,

My name is Brianna. So I finally decided to take a listen to my
Talking Tabs set of guitar lessons that an old VR councelar gave to
me. I like it so far.
I was just wondering if getting calisses on my fingers from playing
would effect my braille reading?
Hope this makes sense. :-)

Thank You

Brianna
