Hi Brandon,
I can’t say yes to any of your questions. I am in my 6th week of playing. I too have to start-stop-rewind all the videos. But I do tend to get most of the techniques. I try to get as close as I can before I feel the frustration. But I honestly feel that I am learning all sorts of things and making more progression than I ever did in the previous 22 years of dorking around trying to perfect a simple scale. I can see myself smiling in the mirror of my hotel room (pro pilot on the road for 15 days at a time). That 10 min thing; not so much. I am usually on the guitar for an hour. At home off rotation, I usually give about 30 min and mark the lesson complete. Bottom line, I am still having fun. Oh, and when I was at the FBO on a 3 hour layover awaiting passengers, I broke out my guitar and although I was in a small room the customer service reps came in to see what I was doing and expressed that I was making good progress and not running people out of the building.

I am absolutely having fun. Eventhough I hadn’t taken a lesson in a bit, I noticed that I was making some new cross picking sounds and my wife noticed it. Very cool

yes its been a journey that’s been off and on. I started in 2002 to learn to play with my son when we bought him his first guitar. But I was a Navy flight instructor by day, working on my masters degree at night and family distractions. The job never let up and so I was never really disciplined enough to get anywhere. That also coupled with the fact that I was stationed overseas etc. Had to sell my guitars to make child support payments and then again went overseas for work. So here I am years later, great guitars in the house and can’t play one song. But this course is getting me closer so much faster.

You are definitely an inspiration Sir!!

Dude, don’t give up. Just work on the small pieces; that’s what I am doing. Some of the challenges come easier than others. For me, it’s the rhythm part and strumming as well as keeping time.
