    TAC has been the primary tool that has helped me understand and play guitar. The techniques it has taught (which you can apply to songs); are a foundation. The platform to be consistent in practice, and become more disciplined in learning, growing in my playing ability, was what I needed to progress. My understanding of the fret-board and theory have improved greatly. After gorging on videos to learn songs (and having very limited progress); I was finally able to by using TAC. I do look at song lessons, or tabs, and work them out on my own. That wouldn’t have happened without TAC.

    Yes; it is a process; seems slow going; and can be discouraging. The process does work over time though as we are consistent. i have times when I do the minimum 10 minutes, and times when I put in an hour or more now that I have progressed some and am also working on a song here and there.

    I am a month away from 4 years now; and though started older (I am 71), could not have imagined I would be able to post videos such as I have recently of the Wagon Wheel Chord Progression and Wish You Were Here. They are far from great, but oh so much more than I thought would be.

    Keep at it and you will surprise yourself. Don’t wait to get something down pat before you take a next step. Keep playing and watch things start coming together. The best to you.

    Nice one Kevin! Yeah; the Eagles have a rep for going hard after people concerning their music.

    Hi; was trying to watch your video; as you said, the link was not working. What I found when I first started posting videos, was that the link it gave me when I created a video didn’t work here. I had to play the video on Youtube, then copy the video address from the address bar. Then I could paste it in TAC, and it placed the video right in the post. I look forward to seeing your video.

    Most excellent! The melody was so very, very good. I liked the way you brought in ethereal backing vocals. The 12 string was a great choice; making the right voice.

    Thanks for listening! I tried to do the ending similar to Gilmour; not quite there LOL; but fun to do.

    Way to go! Day by day; no matter whether you seem to meet your expectation or not; spend your time and leave it behind; build on it; and enjoy the journey.

    That’s great! It is fulfilling when we start to see things flow together; we hear music; and we are making it. Congrats! Keep going!
