    What petelanger said. Just jump in, do what you can. If you have extra time to go to the beginning of a week, that’s great. If you don’t, start where you are and go forward. As he said, they do come back around; and the Monday through Friday lessons follow the same pattern each week (developing a certain skill on each day), so even though the material changes week to week, the Monday skill focus is the same each Monday. Enjoy!

    Thank you all for listening and commenting. You are all so kind to take that time. I have enjoyed this community for years, and my only regret is that I haven’t been able to meet you in person and hang out. Maybe sometime. Keep well!

    Nice! That’s it. Play, at your pace; keep playing; build on each day. A year from now you will look back and see how you have progressed. Good Saturday to you!

    Well done! Very mellow performance, playing great as usual, fitting for the song.

    @Braden Greetings! I don’t plug in a lot, but have found it useful when I get a little bored. I like to use the delay the most with my acoustic; though for certain songs chorus or a combo of delay/reverb, delay/chorus. I have found used or bargain pedals that work well with what I do. Experiment, and have fun.

    Nice! I listened to both, this has more projection, both sounded good. I have tried various finger picks, and just can’t get used to them. I grow my nails longer on my picking hand and do the best I can. You finger pick well. Thanks for sharing!

    Aha! Guild’s are nice; had one at one point. I saw the G on the head stock and presumed then from some of the features. Nice looking and sounding guitar.

    @TMutter
    I was thinking that the stomp box could be useful in some songs. I haven’t been playing with it enough to know how hard it would be to keep the rhythm with it through a whole song. Is it difficult to keep good time with? Is it just a matter of practice with it; or do you have a great sense of timing that translated well?
