    Thank you all so much for taking time to listen; and the kind and encouraging words.

    The Tonewood Amp is a lot of fun; and great to use at home for a quick and easy way to add some acoustic effects without a lot of equipment; using the body of the acoustic guitar as the amplifier to get the effects. It doesn’t really increase volume, but has a large variety of ways to adjust it for many and varied effects. I have a Guild with a curved back, and it will not work on that; but on a flat back it has worked great. I have enjoyed using it at times.

    I have been in TAC a little over 2 years. I show up; do the lesson; and for most of them; leave them behind at the end of that week. Others may approach it differently. Some daily challenges I do well; some are okay; and some are……..see you next time. What I don’t do (any more); is drive myself crazy thinking I had to get each lesson to a certain level of skill. I found it was like I was stuck, and spinning my wheels trying to improve; and I ended up just digging a deep rut of frustration. If I stopped there because of that; I wouldn’t have went on. In time, my skill in those tough areas have improved, subtly. I have added some skill courses along the way; learned songs (applying the skills learned); and even composed a few just for fun.

    Welcome to TAC! Enjoy!

    I have seen that you write quite a few originals. I have a lot to work on in that regard. Keep it up.
