You’re definitely not alone @Lee_W . The old site was so much better in the forums, and the collaboration and comradery are sorely missed. So many of the old TACers have left, and it just doesn’t feel like home anymore.

Very cool testament @SongBirdie !

Congrats Mark! Amazing how quickly time flies. I can remember when you first became a member. Sounds like you’ve worked hard and come a long way. Keep up the great work!

Looks like so much fun @JeffK

@Moonhare Excellent original; great fingerpicking and percussives. Very impressive, and the drop D sounded great. I wish I had 1/2 the talent you have as a newer player of the accoustic! Keep on plunking!!

@Sungreen I don’t think I could say anything different than @Bill_Brown , whose answer was very thorough. Slow it down,work on accuracy, and then slowly increase speed as you improve.
I do want to say that TAC is about progress, not perfection. Don’t spend too much time on the lesson. You want to keep moving forward with the lessons. This doesn’t mean you can’t continue to practice this. Mark it as a Favorite and revisit it as wanted.
Good luck and have lots of fun on your guitar journey!

Sounded great @CamCan !! Congrats on your 1st improv!

Very cool!!

@OhWowMan can you take photos and post them (or video). I suspect you’re doing it correctly if you can play it clearly on the 1st fret, but as you move up the neck you’re not getting the right angle to co.pensate for being in a different position. Try pulling your fretting hand elbow in towards your body. That will add tension.

Hi @Clyde78 Im not familiar with the acronym IG. Are you asking what other guitar learning sites others use or visit?

@NW7 Great question and realization, and as @jumpinjeff confirmed, it is 240 bpm because it’s 1/8 notes. I agree with Jeff that you should keep the metronome at 120 & play the & beats between. Or, you could use the metronome at 120 & play the & beats on the tones, but it would be 60 bpm then. Beginners often find it easier to play the & beats with an actual tone. If speed isn’t an issue, and you want a tone for the & beats, then set it at 240 bpm.
Hope I didn’t confuse you. Good luck and have fun with it.

Hi @CamCan , there isn’t a video attached. Would love to hear it.

Congrats on your 1st video Daniel. You kept great time and it sounded great on your new guitar!

What an awesome win @AttyTJ . Makes you feel good to see the commitment via the counter! Keep up the great work. I’ve seen such growth in you over the past year.

Got such a good laugh at your response. I guarantee you’ll be able to play both chords in the near future, keep up on practicing them.
