    That’s it; a lot of repetition and perseverance for me, but it pays off. Way to keep on it.

    Nice job Loraine! You were doing an excellent job on the alternate bass strumming.

    That was great! I have just started working on Big Sandy River. I am not sure if I will get it down good enough to post; or how long it will take with only a few minutes a day put into it; but I really like the tune. Thanks for posting! Nice to see someone play that.

    Sweet! Nice use of finger picking and strumming together.

  • Everybody is different in how they approach it. Here is what works for me. 1) I spend time playing a few things I have learned in the past to warm up. 2) I keep doing the daily lessons to learn or improve on skills (that is my foundation), and sometimes work on a skill course. 3) I have a song I am working on. I get the songs from various places on the net, or from the old “song vault” that used to be a part of TAC. When I am done with one song; I find a new one; and so keep applying my improved skills as I go along to a song. Some of the songs I choose are actually simple, but still good to learn as I like them; some are challenging. It doesn’t matter if it takes me a long time to get it down fairly decently.

    I find this approach helps me 1) maintain some things I learned; 2) keeps me improving on skills; and 3) allows me to put things into practice on actual songs.

    My nature is such that I need an organized approach. LOL
    I hope you find what works for you so you keep going with enjoyment.

    Welcome! Yes, playing in an alternate tuning occasionally makes it fun and interesting.
