    What an awesome win @Cadgirl ! You’ll definitely have to share it with us. I’ve only done 2 of them, and I kept it so simple it was almost embarrassing, but I did it, and that’s what matters. Keep on plunking away!

    As @cadgirl noted, Fretboard Wizard is being upgraded, and unfortunately it’s a waiting game r right now. When it is available, there will be a banner displayed across the top of the page. Hopefully not too much longer. It was typically offered in the Spring and Fall, but because of COVID and because of the re-engineering of the course, the entire schedule went out the window.

    @Cadgirl Its up to you whether you get a tune up or proper set up (different terminology for basically same thing). Some people swear by them annually or every few years. I personally only take them in when something seems off or if a new guitar to get basic set up and have neck checked.

    Very cool experience @Christopher_H . Looked like you had the most difficult piece to play. My wrist would have tightened up on me and fallen off.

    Congrats on your NGD @aj2323 ! I would definitely have a professional set up on it, especially if the action seems a bit high. Also, they can check the neck for warps, and any other matters that need addressing,

    It is so fulfilling when things just click, and we’re all of a sudden able to play something that maybe gavhe us difficulty on before. Great job @SherryH

    I noticed with the rotation of courses I’ve picked up on them much better this time around. Yes, satisfying!

    Thank you so much @digenu7 ! I was brand new to guitar when I started, and I’m amazed that I can play guitar (or at least a semblance of playing).

    I would do the Daily Challenge, and then peruse the classes, and whatever catches your eye, you can give a tr. I took the jUmpstart to fingerpicking, flatpicking and strumming courses after the 30 days to play. It’s your journey, so you can go several directions.
