Hi @Moonhare, maybe this will help. I’ve included a couple of pictures with some (not all) sizes shapes of the guitar. The Dreadnought is a large guitar with a lot of sound. The Parlor is a smaller (maybe 3/4 size). I have a Martin D-28 (D for Dreadnought), it’s large, it might even be a little too big. I was a newbee when I purchased it. I have a 1/2 size Classical (it’s easy on the fingers because 3 of the strings are nylon). One that really fits my size is the Taylor mini (3/4 size). Last but not least….. a 1/4 size entry guitar that I can use in front of the computer. Oh, and a 3/4 size guitar doesn’t mean it’s 3/4 the size of a full size guitar. It’s just a couple inches smaller. The same goes with the 1/2 size and 1/4 size. I’m sure someone else will answer that might be able to answer your question better, but….. I wanted to give it a try 😉

I am going to agree with Mike-Garunier , look into taking the fretboard wizard. I went though it a couple of times to really understand it. Also the challenges are good to keep up on , especially Wednesday. There is a Blues 5 day challenge in the courses that might help you out a little too. good luck, but don’t worry you’ll get there.

Your right about next weeks Acoustic Tuesday. If I remember correctly he is going to make using the metronome fun. 🙂
Hey @Earl where is the 90 day goal sheet? I don’t think i’ve ever seen it -
The strap is looking good.

@Loraine , This is one of my favorite songs. Good job!

@Loraine , I have as my 90 day goal is to be able to fingerpick “dream a little dream of me”. As of right now, I plan on posting my accomplishment. I will have to use my IPhone to record, is that going to be good enough?

Welcome, I’m sure you are going to enjoy the site and the support groups.

I saw the 1.5mm s at Guitar Center and thought it would be too thick. Next time I’m there I’m going to pick up a bag. Thanks

I just started to use a pick a few months back. I never liked them. Now? I realize they have their place. Thanks for the comment.

@Bill_Brown, your right about the depth of the dreadnought. When I’m playing my Martin D28 it is like having my arms around a big dog. I never released how big they were.
In fact….. I think I just named my Martin. From now on, It will be know as the “Big Dog” 🙂 -
Ok then @Loraine, then the IPhone is going to be it. Your videos come out really nice. Sound and video. I’ll start practicing with recording myself. Thanks

I’m going up to the guitar store near me and picking up a collection of different sizes of picks. From what I’ve been reading on the posts some are better for strumming some better for picking. As for the slide, I thought I saw a course on this site for learning slide. I thought…. what the heck, why not. Ragtime! I would love to learn ragtime stuff. Good job
