    I bought a full size dreadnought Martin D28 in February 2021. It has a beautiful sound, but I didn’t realize how big it was going to be. Or how much harder it would be stretching my arm out to get those chords. The neck is a lot wider than a lot of other guitars too, which I never thought about. I purchased a inexpensive Cordoba 1/2 size as a 2nd guitar just to practice on. If it’s easy, i’ll pick it up more. Tony has talked a lot about the Taylor GS Mini with is a 3/4 size. This time…. I’m a little smarter and have gone to the music store numerous times to play one. I’ve been back and played it again and again. The store has a 45 day return policy. So I’m going up this morning and get the 3/4 Taylor GS mini Rosewood-e (well, going back and forth on the electric). Wish me luck. I hope @Barry2021 is reading this… make sure the store has a return policy, because if it doesn’t fit, you won’t play it as much. Oh, yes…. Don’t get rid of that FG-150 either!

    The Fretboard Wizard opens a lot of doors. Congrats on the small win.

    Congratulations! I did mine last month and I don’t think they are on right. I know Tony has a video on it but I thought I could figure it out. I’m going to have to look it up and try again. Again Congrats

    I have noticed this also. I think the challenges work off each other. I don’t have a problem with it. But, I can see how this could be a problem for some people. If you are out of town for a week, does that mean you have to make up the week before playing the current challenge? looks like it. Also, how does it affect the next month? I don’t know? This might be a question for the “higher ups”.

    I still don’t know why this was taken off? I thought it was pretty good.

    Doing good if you can get all the daily challenges completed. I give at least 10 minutes to the challenges. Some are harder than others. I also am doing one of the “blues” courses. I like it, it’s notes that sort of flow so it’s relaxing to learn. Good job on your training so far.

    I think you’ll like it once you get into it a little more. I agree with @Loraine to check out the skill courses. If I had joined during the upgrade I would have been disillusioned. Hopefully they are still working on getting the bugs out of the forums. They still are really slow.

    that’s fantastic. I think it’s these little victories that make us grow as guitar players.

    Yep, a great Mother’s Day gift to myself! I had to order it (Taylor GS mini – rosewood) because it seems all the music stores near me are out of the acoustic. But, it should be in by the end of next week.

    I just got back from the music store. I wanted to think it over if I wanted to trade in my Cordoba or not. Decided to keep in and ordered a new Taylor GS Mini – Rosewood. It will take 3 to 5 days for it to come in. Super geeked. Now…. I’ll have a full size, 3/4 size, 1/2 size and 1/4 size. It a family of guitars 🙂 Your right great for a Mother’s Day Weekend.

  • Your right, it was really a lot of fun and I felt like I really accomplished something.
