    That was lovely I got a Spanish feel too as bugmeist said. So comfortable and relaxed with the guitar it comes out in the playing.

    Nice one scotty I really enjoyed playing this one. Great job

  • Forget the old website Steven as someone who used it the lessons are no different now, yes there was 3 different videos but this was just different speeds you can still do this in the videos with the x buttons I also like to use a metronome . The song vault wasn’t part of the curriculum it was a paid added extra of old lessons. I paid for it and got a lot out of it but it was the daily lessons that gave me the skills and confidence to play them

    I get you want to Tailor the lessons to suit how your journey is going and you can do this whilst using TAC. I do this by completing the daily lessons to the best of my ability (I’ve been here nearly 6 months now) 6 months ago I could barely do them now I tend to complete them and even have the tools to play around with them adding new flourishes or just falling down a hole of noodling. Let yourself go submit to the idea of trying something new each day and challenging yourself and with some patience before you know it your doing things on the guitar you never even thought about trying.. Then when you’ve got what you can out of the lesson and have more time learn a song or a scale, scales with a metronome have been instrumental in my learning and gaining understanding of rhythm and connections between my fretting and strumming hand. Get a file write it all down create that dream course yourself, get obsessed celebrate the positives rather then getting hung up on the negatives or what you can’t control . By doing the lessons everyday I now have the knowledge to take things further and I am now starting to learn songs that aren’t polecastro arrangements which is why I picked up the guitar (sorry Tony)

    Just offering a different perspective good luck with your journey ✌️

    Hi @Solcat I’ve started to overcome this problem recently. I have a cheap entry level guitar and a few months ago came to the conclusion it was my guitar. As for me the muting that occurs is only from a minute touch so I figured if I had more space this would get rid of the problem or if the action was lower again this would give me the fraction of space I need. This could be an easy fix and if you want a new guitar jump in (I’m going to as soon as I decide what I would like) but you may end up spending £££ and still have the same problem and that would be gutting. So in the meantime for me a lot of practice has helped overcome this and I’ve managed to realise what has made the difference is when playing c and g chord I now ( not always sometimes I get tired or sloppy and the muting occurs) slightly push the lower string up a bit and this gives me the room I need to stop muting A String or D string hammer on depending what chord you playing (it’s possible before I realised this I could have been pulling the string a bit so this is what made the muting) . This has really improved my form on playing the chords too so hopefully when I do step up and get that new guitar I’ll be a better player. Hope this helps. Stick with it keep experimenting and you’ll get it
