Hi @garyrc4aol-com and welcome to TAC. I would recommend having a look at completing the Flatpicking Jumpstart and the Cross Picking 5 Day Challenge.
The other thing I have learned is to slow down when learning something that is new. A metronome is a must here. Set the metronome to a BPM wherein you are able to hit the two strings perfectly without any adjacent strings. Practice at that speed to build the muscle memory of your picking hand. Once you have accomplished that Increase the speed incrementally and see if you are able to again do it perfectly. If not, dial the metronome back again. Repeat this process until you are able to execute the goal (in your case hitting two strings without the adjacent strings) at the desired speed. It may seem like an excruciatingly slow process however it is tried and true! Good luck and keep on going playing!

Hi @Tdean95 . The Wednesday daily challenge provides a scale to be used for the improv. Tony usually identifies the scale and the mode to be played.
Some years ago I stumbled on this site. It appears a bit dated however it contains quite a bit of information and is organized fairly well. The “Fretboard” section contains some info on scales. https://hubguitar.com
I hope that others post their go to sites and information.

Welcome @danny_jo! In addition to the great resources identified here by @Philb , there is also a “TAC Song Vault” where you will find both finger style and flat picking songs to learn. Here is a link: https://app.searchie.io/hub/254V7grV3m/
These song lessons were used in the past on the TAC site.

Agree with @loraine . @outdoorgator Ultimate Guitar Tabs is the place to go for chord sheets and tabs. You will probably get a nag screen to do a pay description. Just close that pop up and go about your search. Here is a link to the site. https://www.ultimate-guitar.com

Hi @outdoorgator , try having a look at Ultimate Guitar Tabs: https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/
You can search for the song or artist and you will typically find what you are looking for.
Many times there are a number of different tabs and chord sheets people have submitted. I usually look for the most popular one and use it.
Have fun!
