  1. Quite humbling…..stuff I never learned to do. Im really enjoying the fun of learning something good each day.

    1. More than 5 days for me too and 10 minutes just gets me started. Its Tonys reverse psychology. But its fun, I can see that 6 months down the road its gonna feel good, im enjoying the work.

  2. Great stuff……………..Now we’re startin’ to cook!!
    Relatively easy with a little practice ……….sounds great too.

  3. Starting to feel the first 4 fret levels without looking. Makes the tablatures easier to play. Moving down to 7-10 . now that’s a challenge not to look. And where I lose my place.

  4. OK….concept introduced in 30-day challenge, slightly deeper dive this rodeo. Now I “get” how this thing works. I am spending more time looking at the “Tabs” than listening to Tony, which is OK. The fingers get stronger, fret board awareness and picking get stronger. I could still live without the guilt.

  5. this takes a lot more than 10 minutes a day. I like it and it’s all good but definitely more than 10 minutes a day and even that is not mastery. Understand it will all come with time and repetition. The lessons are great and couldn’t be better explained.

  6. Had fun learning the boogie. It was definitely easier for me to learn the timing since I had heard it so many times before.

  7. Question:
    So if some one is playing an A chord do I play the scale in A?
    And when they switch from a A chord to a E chord then I switch to the scale in the E position and the same with the B chord go to the B position scale?

  8. It’s taking some time for me to get down the finger work but I think I’ve got it. Just need to keep practicing it now.

  9. Light bulb moment for me when I realized I’m playing parts of the pentatonic scales in the lesson. Made it easier to remember as I moved along the fretboard.
    And served as a reminder to practice these scales….

  10. I found these last two days very hard to get down in a day?
    I will add these to my daily practice routine and move along to the next one? Or should i keep playing them until I’m better at them then move on?

  11. That was really fast. Are we supposed to master this after a certain time or stay within 10 minutes–I’m already at over 30–and just move forward. SHould I be trying to memories this and not look at the tabs?

  12. i seem to be all fingers and thumbs, but im getting there and i have found this lesson to be the easiest lesson yet.
    IM buzzing. thanks Toni.

  13. The tabs: under the video, right side, you can see two little icons, a heart and little notes.
    Click on the notes and the tabs are there.

  14. I can’t find any of the tablatures either anywhere for any of it. Tony doesn’t seem to care either. I have mentioned the same thing somewhere else and still no answers…

    1. Below the Box there is a heart
      Next to the hear is a music note
      hit that and the tablature comes up in another tab

      1. thank you! I have been looking for tablatures for a week or more. Was going to ask tonight and saw your answer.

    2. There are two small icons just below the video along the lower right hand corner. The icons are a heart and a music note. Click on the music note to show the lessons music. Hope this helps you. Have a great week!

    3. I think you are better off asking the forum. I doubt Tony has time for small questions. For more important questions, I have asked Jonas-Silvius.

  15. where could i find the notes with the lesson. It’s pretty hard to see which fingers your are using where in the video, you say it but you want to follow the fingers it’s hard to tell which finger your using

    1. Felicecr@gmail.com, below the video on the right side the is a small heart, well beside the small heart the is a small note and lines icon. Click on it you will find the notes. It is the same for every video panel as far as I can see.

  16. This has been so hard – my fingers don’t easily reach the notes in the 5, 6, 9, 10 bars. Better if I use a classical guitar like hold. Good sound tho.

    1. On the rightside of the heart button underneath the video screen is a heart button – and next to it a note symbol with lines added. Click that symbol ;-).
      (It might be difficult to see because of the light grey colour)

    1. Yeah me too. I only joined in April and spent the first 6 weeks only playing the daily challenges. Now those are just the start. I do like the screen after you click Complete and it asks if you want to go to a skill.

  17. My guitar is in the shop. So today I’m pocking around the website and marked this and the other 12 Bar Blues as faves. What a cool sound. Can’t wait to try it. Good sound at 1.5X speed.
