Sweet! Sounding great. That is a lot to learn. I don’t believe I could memorize something with that many verses any more (maybe never LOL). The best to you as you chip away at it. Nice use of the finger picks.

First time? Tone, accuracy, technique, clarity…..check on all of them. You have it down. Speed comes around in time. Wait until next time! Great job!

I have tried a lot through the years, and have several I may use. My over all favorite is this one. Enough grip to help; but not so much it hinders. I have some thicker, like you use; and some thinner (that I find too flexible). This .88 and a 1.0 give me the best over all control, with some flexibility. At my level of playing, it fits me. I hope you find what works for you.

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!

Thank you so much! May your weekend be a good one. Keep picking though. 🙂

@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.
