Preparing for week 1 of 30 day playing guitar
Posted by Jim R on December 29, 2024 at 3:22 pmspent the weekend reading 30 day playing guitar up to week 1 Blues lesson and practicing basic chords. Forgot how sore finger tips get. LoL. Can’t wait to start week 1 Blues lesson.

I started on the 30 day to play road on Friday! I have sore fingers and trouble making them move to the right spot on the frets, but I see progress even after just a few days! Keep at it!

We all start out at a place where the fingers hurt, aren’t as flexible as desired, and don’t go where we want (or as quickly as we’d like). Over time, with consistency and repetition, it comes around. I started at an older age, 67, and been in TAC about 4.67 years. I can’t believe what I can do now, as compared to where I started. I will never be great; but I can play some things. I have improved. It seems like such small, incremental steps at times; but keep at it and you will surprise yourself. Enjoy the journey!

@jimrobinson894gmail-com welcome to the TAC community! Feel free to jump into the 30 days to play any time. Also, there’s no real time frame to go through the 30 days to play. 30 days is just a recommendation. Some go through it faster and many go through it slower than that.
Go through a lesson and after 10 minutes market is complete. You can still continue to practice, but I caution not to get too, caught up and trying to perfect a lesson. TAC’s philosophy is progress rather than perfection. Just do the best you can, but keep moving forward even if you feel you haven’t perfected it. You will continue to see progress by following this philosophy and way of learning.
Painful fingertips luckily it’s just temporary until you build up some calluses. It doesn’t take long if they become too sore I suggest backing off a little bit playing you can ice your fingertips and before you know it you won’t even notice.
30 days to play is such a fun course you really will be amazed in a short amount of time.
