    I am probably misunderstanding; but with an open C chord; the 5th string (A), C note (fretted on the 3rd fret), would be using the ring finger the way I believe it is usually played; unless you have a different way of fingering it.

    By the way; 72 here; I get the challenges with older hands, stiffness, and arthritis.

    @lecassandra
    Yes, the skill courses offer quite a bit. Whenever you start the Daily Challenge part; which works on the same essential skills every week, Monday through Friday, but with different material; it will seem overwhelming (at least it did to me). Step in, put in your time, do the best you can; and move on, day to day, then week to week. Perseverance, not perfection. I had weeks I didn’t really understand much. It is the daily consistency that, even though it seems to add up slowly, that eventually builds up the guitar skills. Keep it fun; don’t compare; and just enjoy.

    @Bill_Brown I should have mentioned that was in DADGAD tuning.

    @Bill_Brown It is a Washburn, concert size; all mahogany. It is not that expensive (around $550 when I bought it); but the sound beat out other guitars up to $300 more.

    Nice one Kevin! In 1969 I was 17. When you take off in that time machine, stop by and pick me up along the way. A visit to that time would be nice for a short while. Have a good weekend!

    That’s it; learn, play, post. Way to go! This one’s a bit tricky; especially for someone newer to guitar. I hadn’t seen you post before, so clicked on your profile. I am so sorry to hear about your dad. I have been there also; though quite a bit older than you; and it does hit us hard. Enjoy music; enjoy the journey of playing; and just go forward at your own pace and way. Welcome to TAC! Keep yourself well.
