    That was some excellent picking; and your vocals came through great with your use of the headset mic. Well done!

    The K&K Pure Mini is great. I put one in a guitar of mine I used to have. It will give great acoustic sound no matter which amp you decide on.

    I have the Tonewood Amp. It is great for adding effects without having to plug into a bunch of equipment, and just uses the guitar body. It doesn’t really amplify the sound; but you can plug it into an acoustic amp also if you wanted to.
    Look for used if you don’t want to invest a lot to start, or not sure what you want. I found a great deal from someone locally on a used Epiphone acoustic amp which is great to mess around with.

    I am great appreciative of you all taking the time to listen, your gracious and kind words, and your prayers. I wasn’t sure how a song such as this would fit or be received; but am thankful for this community and the acceptance.

    Welcome! The Daily Challenge on TAC sometimes cover finger style, sometimes flat picking, riffs, chords and chord transitions; and through it all some music theory. There are the skill courses also. They are all included in the TAC program. Fretboard Wizard is a separately priced program, but well worth it. All together they give someone a program to build guitar playing skills and understanding. At an old age, in my 2 years 9 months, it has taken me from knowing a few chords; to actually playing, understanding, and even creating some music. I can see progress, and that is all I wanted. It gives a format to provide consistency, and has kept me at it. The best to you on your guitar journey.

    @Bill_Brown Thanks much for listening, the kind words, and the prayer. Yes, he is actually the source of the words in some form or another. Music is such a great way to express things.

    @jackietrav12gmail-com Thanks for listening and the kind words.
