I really like your right hand technique and I’d be soooo happy if I could get to the level while singing at the same time. Just wondering how long you’ve been playing and how much of that was time with Acoustic Challenge. Thanks and great job!

So much great advice here! Glad I read down through this thread… I can’t add any more so I’ll just say thanks!!!

Thanks Tony. Glad you guys are on the job. As a former IT Tech, I can relate but having more members is a good problem that should result in more resources to manage the infrastructure. Good luck!

I think one of the very big concepts that we get here is the idea that you don’t have to master every exercise before moving on. I used to think I had to master what I was learning before I went on to new exercises, techniques, songs, riffs, etc. What that did was keep adding to my practice until I was working on a dozen things at the same time… if I got close to or achieved mastery on the first thing I started working on, I figured I had to keep hitting it night after night to keep that mastery. This turned out to be a big trap leading to frustration and failure as my practice routing got so long and convoluted, it just wasn’t realistic any more. I like to stay with about 3 things a session and I don’t need to master before I move on. The weird thing is sometimes, when I haven’t hit an exercise for a few day but rather, worked on something else, I go back to the exercise and I’m a ton better at it. Having “played at” guitar for a few decades, starting and stopping serious study several times but playing well enough to do a few songs around the campfire, I feel I’m making real progress into the intermediate stage with AC. Good luck!
