@Crabby is correct, but I highly recommend taking the Fretboard Wizard class. It will help make sense of all of this. I’m retaking it again because I forgot a lot of stuff myself.

The daily challenges only last for the month, then they are gone. Best bet is to copy to your computer or use the favorite icon to save. I attached the last 3 days onto this message.

Your TAC anniversary sounds great. Your own studio, how cool is that. I have to look up how to utilize youtube. I haven’t even uploaded anything yet, and your going to have your own channel. I have to look into that sort of stuff. I will say this site has helped me out a lot. I no longer wander in the dark looking for something to do on my guitar. ha ha ha….. again, congrats

@nelsonb12 you are a great inspiration for me. I was just putting together my new 90 day goal and being able to come up with my own song is one of them!! Great job.

Great “small win” . Good for you to learn by watching instead of reading tabs all the time.

@Ryan_1cor13 good luck with “Dust in the Wind”. This is a song that will help you learn Travis picking and get good at it (and travis picking is used in a lot of songs). After your fingers learn the pattern then you can work on speed. Hey! Today is goal day isn’t it? This would be a great 90 day goal.

I downloaded a tuner off my IPhone app store. It’s called insTuner. I think it works well. I usually have my IPhone with me, so I always have access to a tuner. Best of all it was FREE, my favorite 4 letter word.

I have the cement mixer but couldn’t find the traffic cones. Could it have been called something else?

Good job on keeping consistent on your playing. It doesn’t seem like putting aside 10 minutes out of your day is a big deal. But, it is sometimes. I know this month I’ve missed a few days myself. Good Job and keep at it.

good job @Loraine!

@Juhan, @Loraine is right , the tension is a lot stronger on those steel strings. I just recently had a mishap with a guitar of mine. Those steel stings pulled the neck loose from the body of the guitar. I replaced the strings with nylon (classical) and now it’s in working order again (well, after a little gorilla glue, clamps and dry time). I have 2 guitars with nylon strings and it’s a LOT easier on your fingers when I practice. I also have 2 guitars with steel strings.

I made a calendar of the VOMs in Excel. It really wasn’t that hard to do. There are all kinds of templates on the internet. You just have to fill in the info of what site is open on what day and time. As for the members map, I wasn’t really crazy about that, so I don’t miss it. But the VOM calendar I missed. This is a snap shot of my calendar.

you know @Mark , sometimes I need the video too. It never fails, I think I can remember something and when I go back, I’m lost. Some of the challenges are a bit tricky. In those cases, I take out my trusty IPhone and record it. Is it a hassle? yeah, sure it is, but I also can see where the site doesn’t want to just give the videos away. Good luck and start looking for a travel guitar for when you travel 🙂

@Loraine , I’m just wondering if you could attach the pdf onto a post? I’ve never tried that. But, I have taken a screen capture and attached. Never tried to just attach the pdf (dahhhh). I do wish they would keep the tabs for an extra month thou. There are a lot of people that don’t have easy access to a computer/internet all the time.
