Nicely done! It looks like you are enjoying the guitar journey. Keep it going!

Thank you both for listening and the kind words.

I loved this! So well done. I looked up the chords; a lot; but doable. I couldn’t sing it as well as you; but will enjoy learning it. Thank you! Awesome cover!

Good job Marty! Nice strumming technique with the fingers. It accentuates the chords so well.

Some days they are just stiffer, slower, or almost seem to lock. I have begun exercising them daily, and even while just sitting in a chair will move them all around, open and close, etc. Regular movement and use seems to help some. Keep playing. That in itself will lengthen their use and ability.

Most excellent! Since you have inspired me, and we are working on it this week; I will have to see how I can fare. Thank you!

It will be 4 years in a month. You can look at some of the videos I have posted in the TAC Forum in the last year to see where I am now, as compared to where I was when I started, which was only knowing a few basic chord shapes. I recently posted messing around with the chord progression to Wagon Wheel; and did Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd. I know they are not the best, but I only got there by using TAC. Everyone is different; but TAC is just what I needed; even when it seemed I was only progressing in small increments. Then it struck me; that is exactly how you improve; little by little each day. The best to you.
