    All praise the Gods of Guitar for today was a good one. On my 50 days of TAC, a new guitar for my journey and a Small Win on my chords to boot. This will only take 1 minute of your time but I needed the video evidence as proof that even someone with soft piano player hands can make progress on the wood and wire!

      Thanks @Bill_Brown I now need to pull that out of the hat without thinking but it is great to know I’m getting there. New guitar is wonderful and I’m going to tune my other one to open G to try some slide.

    Congratulations on the F bar- I finally got it down last month so I totally understand the excitement on this small win. Nice purchase, now you have the F you can definitely make the B-bar!

      You’re right about the B. Time to start getting stuck in with these chords.

      Yes I was allowed to have it for 14 days to see if I got on with it. I emailed the store after 2 hours to say they’re not having it back!

        Sure do! I have an AC1R and love it. The electric pick-up is amazing. I am looking forward to your first song. @Moonhare I have the perfect one for you.

        Ooh, please share. I love your videos and am looking for songs to learn! We have almost identical guitars too. You are right that the pick up is fabulous.

        Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley is an excellent beginner song that you can have a lot of fun with and feel very accomplished having learned it. C, Am, F, G and E7 I highly recommend it. 👍🏻

        I will give it a try. I saw him play at Glastonbury Festival a few weeks before he died. He was amazing.
