Welcome aboard! I recommend you keep doing what you're doing as long as you're having fun with it, and it sure sounds like that's the case!

For some odd reason, I saw the guitar and the lyrics to Roberta Flack's song, Killing me softly with his song and(...strumming my pain with his fingers) came immediately to mind. Kind of a 'trigger pic' for a long ago and fondly recalled 70s song.
