30 days to play
I am new and doing the 30 days to play course, my question is if there are only three topics/lessons in the week and I am playing everyday, do I just keep playing the same thing for the week then move on?

Welcome to TAC! I think you’ll soon discover it opens up a whole new world for your guitar journey! Been awhile since I did the 30 day course, so I can’t remember how I approached it, but even if you’re a complete beginner I would suggest looking at some of Tony’s skill courses as a supplement. Several of them are great for introducing or reinforcing some fundamental practices like strumming, stretching or fretboard knowledge. Enjoy your journey!

thanks for your reply, I have been doing the Fender lessons as well to supplement but now I will start to check out the other sections, I was a bit apprehensive because I didn’t want to pick up a bad habit I would have to break later. 😁

Hi @01jcheathgmail-com and welcome to TAC. I hope you enjoy the journey here. IMHO, the lessons within the 30 Days to Play are designed to have things “go at your own pace”. If you have the time and understanding of the material presented, then by all means have at it! And by that I mean do as many lessons as you like in a day – there’s no rule that says you should do only 1 lesson per day. Depending on an individuals prior guitar experience, some can complete the course in a week (if they have the time to spend on it), while others may need 8 weeks. With that being said, at a minimum, you should be able to understand the material presented within the lesson in order to mark it complete and move on to the next one – you don’t have to master it, (as a minimum) just understand it. You can always come back to a lesson at anytime you want.
Best of luck along your journey👍😎🎸

Welcome to TAC @01jcheathgmail-com ! Great advice here already. Another option if you would like to try it is doing the daily challenge along with 30 days to play. As stated above it all depends in your guitar experience, time available and capacity to learn. Have fun!

When I started TAC I was completely new to guitar. My approach with 30 Days to play was to stick to practicing the videos available for the given week – sometimes there weren’t enough videos for each day so I would just go back to the videos from that week or the previous week to work on getting clean sounds and work on accuracy. I focused on repetition.
Again, it was the first time I had picked up the guitar so I wasn’t able to increase speed at the time. Now, a few months in I tend to go back to the 30 Days To Play play alongs and revisit them the last two days of the month to work on speed. It is a great anchor as well to see progress. I was worried that I plateaued recently but went back to the 30 Day lessons and saw that I could play them with less difficulty.
Good luck! Have fun.
