Congrats Rando! Just think about the improvement in just 4 months, and then when you look back after 8 months how much more improvement over the beginning of your journey, keep up the great work,

Very nicely done @Jonathandavid , really enjoyed the movement and tones up and down the fretboard.

Hi Tyrone, in all honesty I don’t recall there being downloads in FBW. Do you know specifically what you’re looking for? I can then search my documents for them.

Bluesy & Jazzy at the same time. Nicely done @charlie_d !

Great win @Duane58 – Increasing your chord repertoire!

[Loraine]

That’s great that you found today’s lesson to be something to light up your practice @NW-NJ-Guitar-Dave !

Hi @stevieblues – I liked Tony’s example of physically rolling the wrist and letting the fingers ‘rake’ across the strings. You could also slow it way down and play each string separately, and then start increasing the speed in small increments until you’re fast enough that you’re actually raking the strings.

@Himleyn Several of the Skills courses are newer, so it’s a possibility that others might be added at some point. However, I haven’t heard anything about whether there are plans in the works. You could write Support and ask.

Definitely a good win @Duane58 – Pull offs can be challenging, but it’s a great playing tool and comes in handy.

Glad you’re back at it Everett!

Hey @Skyman I can completely understand the difficulty using a metronome, but I think it’s a necessity. I use it in the learning and the practice phase, albeit not well all the time. I use Pro Metronome, which I’ve found to work best for me. It has a lot of options, and the learning curve wasn’t too painful.

Fantastic wins @Jeff73 !

Happy 2nd TACiversary @xiao-bai ! It sounds as if you’ve come far in a short amount of time. I would love to hear something from your band. Here’s to another inspiring year!

Hey @duane58, I’ll give tons of #smallwins when it comes to practice and accountability and effort! As a note, you don’t need fingernails to play the fingerpicking lessons. You can just use the tips or pads of your fingers to pick. If you can get used to finger picks, I’ll give you bonus points. I’ve never been able to master them. Great job on your wins!

Appreciate the reply @johnny67 , and I’m sure I’ll have many slips and mention other sites by complete mistake – on occasion 😎
