OMG!!! @albert_d , you made my day! I am really starting to understand a lot more by sitting down and figuring out how to put it together. I’ll only get better 🙂

[Cadgirl]

@Mrfredsporty, this is a really good ‘small win’ . Just keep that determination to keep plugging away.

@LisaA , Glad you had some fun with the guitar lick in the 5-day routine challenge. I think you took a giant step forward to understand what the heck those challenges really are and how to use them for your best advantage. Have fun.

@MikeGaurnier Good Job on the video and giving some insight on how you accomplish so much on your guitar. Thank you for sharing it with us.,

@GerryB56 , 10 weeks is just a scratch of the surface. When I first started I had to track what I was doing, just to make sure I was doing something. Now almost 2 years later, I think I’m finally getting it. Now I played before when I was much younger. So I already knew some stuff. You didn’t say if you were a complete beginner? Or did you play before? I liked this week but it had some hard barre chords on Friday. I like @jumpinjeff thoughts of just enjoy the process.

@Kitman , I tried to comment on your video earlier but the video wouldn’t load. Logged out and tried to log back into TAC and
was having issues getting back on. I waited about an hour and finally got back on. At least it wasn’t the pink screen of death! Your Improv came out great! Good job with it.

@albert_d , glad to hear this. I’m at the 1/2 way point of book1. I like the way it’s written. Usually these books are written as if it’s a foreign language. Seems like the author is trying to make it as understandable as he can. Also @Kitman , the books aren’t thick. Book 1 only has 100 pages.

@Mrfredsporty , thank you for the comment. You will keep me accountable for this goal. I had plan on playing it on the guitar. Geez! The barre chords are murder holding down to finger pick. But…. if i can get it to sound reasonably well, i’ll post. Thanks again for your comment.

@HowarM , My understanding is if you purchased the first FBW you’ll automatically have access to the update. The update is supposed to come out later this year.

@GerryB56 , have you done the 5 day routine challenge. It’s on of the skill courses that are offered. It explains how the daily challenges work day by day and how you can put them together into a music composition at the end of the week. I think once you understand them, you’ll look at them different. Good luck.

[Cadgirl]

excellent. I used the pick similar to what Tony had on one of the days challenges. It seemed to work. Good luck on the video.

@Mrfredsporty , You didn’t spend too much money on the guitar of your dreams. Who cares if you aren’t a rock yet. Your day is coming. The last Saturday of August (which is August 27th) is ‘Play Music on the Porch Day’. You better be out there. Make yourself up a collection of Tony’s licks that you like, print them up, put em in a book and get outside. Then you and Marty-D jam!

Good luck with your video. Will you be posting it on this site? I’m going to guess JMGs site? Right now I am piecing together a new song using this weeks challenges. I’m going to finger pick this one, but it’s so hard to hold the barre chords down without a buzz. That G#m is an absolute beast. I’m going to keep practicing because I’d like to play it and post it by Sunday.

@Cherie, you made a great choice. I had a Martin -18 and it was a good fit for me. I stupidly traded it in for the -28 which just was too big. I should have stayed with what I had. If it fits you, you’ll play it!

[Cadgirl]

I just use it as a cheat sheet. I only look it up a Key at a time 😉
