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

Good job on day 96. Not only on the guitar but you hit those high notes! GREAT JOB!

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.

try not to stray for too long. One month, becomes two so easy. Welcome back.

Good for you on this win.

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

I thought I would be way farther along than I am right now. Joining up with TAC in 2-2021 really has helped me out. I was started to get bored of just learning a song here and there. Now I’m concentrating on different methods. The daily challenges are a great motivator to get me going in the morning too. But, yes, I was totally geeked when I could figure out the chords to the song. First of many, I hope.

Just the TV commercial jingles and then figure out a solo to it. I just feel so good about putting something together. I have to go back through the course to figure out a few things. But, at the very least it does make some sense now.
