  • 30 day challenge incorrect tab?

    Posted by Michael B on August 13, 2025 at 2:58 pm

    Just starting. In week 1 of the 30 day challenge. It seems like the tablature does not match what is being said in the lesson for the Blues Boogie. Tony says to start on the low E open string, but the tab is showing the A string being played as open. Am I reading something wrong here? Thanks

    I see where this confused you:

    The TAB starts in the “A” Section which indeed starts on the A string.

    But Tony teaches you the Boogie as a repeating pattern using the E string as the model for the rest. He calls it the “E” Section, which logically begins on the low E, then moves and finishes on the A string. This is the example for the other sections which he flies through much quicker because they are the same thing on a different set of strings: ” A” Section (A&D strings), “D” Section (D&G strings).

    Tony will not always teach the parts in the order they appear, he will often work from top to bottom or the other way, which is quite logical.

    I came here for the same question. It was confusing to have the PIP so I could see the TAB and then he didn’t even follow the tab

    Question regarding the 30 day challenge. Does the 30 day challenge course need to be completed before we begin th 5 day challenge or is it supposed to be done in conjunction with the 5 day challenge? Thanks.

    If I remember correctly, the 5 Day Challenge does not become available until you’ve completed the 30 Days to Play. But I do recall being able to go through multiple days of 30 Days to Play in one day. I completed the 30 Days to Play and the 5 Day Challenge in about 25 days.
