    @amcmurtrietwcny-rr-com -rr-com and @Mark_S Welcome to TAC, and congratulations on completing the 30 days to play and the next 6 chords.

    Mark makes a great suggestion in starting with the daily lessons, but first you might want to take the skills lessons, 5-Day Guitar Routine Challenge, which actually explains how the daily lessons work. The daily Stretches for Guitarists should be mandatory to avoid injuries. I got tendonitis and tennis elbow from playing and had to hang up the guitar for several months. It was torture.

    The following is what TAC suggests, “After the 3 minute TAC <strong style=”background-color: var(–bb-content-background-color); font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; color: var(–bb-body-text-color); -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;”>Quick Start orientation, begin your guitar journey with the <strong style=”background-color: var(–bb-content-background-color); font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; color: var(–bb-body-text-color); -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;”>30 Days to Play challenge to learn the basics and to begin building your daily 10 minute guitar routine. Once you’ve completed that, begin the <strong style=”background-color: var(–bb-content-background-color); font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; color: var(–bb-body-text-color); -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;”>5-Day Guitar Routine Challenge where Tony takes you by the hand and guides you through your first week of daily challenges. Once these are complete, you’re ready to dive into the TAC daily guitar challenges! Use <strong style=”background-color: var(–bb-content-background-color); font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; color: var(–bb-body-text-color); -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;”>Your Next Six Chords when you get curious about adding the most common chords to your arsenal. Use <strong style=”background-color: var(–bb-content-background-color); font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; color: var(–bb-body-text-color); -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;”>Daily Stretch for Guitarists at any point your hands, shoulders, or back start to feel sore or stiff.”

    The daily lessons have a different theme each week, and each daily lesson builds upon the previous days lessons. The lessons cover speed challenges, technique, scales and improv, rhythm, and chord progressions.

    You can delve into the Skills section anytime you want. There’s no order to taking lessons; Whatever interests you. I will say the Jumpstart to fingerpicking and Flatpicking, and the Strumming courses were great intros to those skills, and you’ll actually learn songs in the Jumpstart classes.

    Good luck, and have fun.
