    I commend your choice of paths and validate your decision with my personal experience. Life’s journey is hard but better with a guitar strapped to your back. Happy New Year.

    Welcome back to your guitar journey. I’ve had success and enjoyment with TAC. I recommend the Lifetime plan because it committed me and has become a great value both financially and personal fulfillment-wise.

    Interesting mash up. Did you put your camera on the floor? Why did you choose your camera angle? Merry (belated) Christmas.

    I’d forgotten about this American song. Thanks for reminding me with this quick but fun rendition.

    I’m intrigued by the Seven title. Are we inferring the Seven Deadly Sins? There is certainly a moral overtone. You guys are consistently creative.

    I like all this holiday focus. Good chance to use your guitar to bring a little cheer.

    Nice. You’ve got the Christmas spirit. What are the two guitars propped against the window?

    Yes, as he said counting in is helpful. That metronome is a hard mistress, but that is why it helps us improve. I’ve been using one more often to prepare myself to play with others in a band setting which is one of my goals for 2025.

    I like the song. I’d like to see your guitar more in the frame so I could watch your technique. I like the texture of your voice with the directness of the lyrics. Thanks for posting.

    I plan to start playing more with others, particularly with a worship team at church.

    December 27, 2024 at 6:36 am in reply to: Positioning of guitar

    The tried and true answer is the classical guitar position with one foot propped up. That is the least stress ergonomically. But next is up with a strap so that one can stand up or sit down without significant change in guitar position. Most of us don’t do either but just grab and go.

    Enjoyed the song and your performance. Makes me wonder… what would my Mother say if one asked her about her baby boy? What would one ask about me?
