Congratulations on completing the 30 Days to Play course, and I agree with @stevieblues that the Next Six Chords should be tackled. After that, you can focus on the Daily Challenges, and anything in the Skills section. There’s no real direction on what to take next. It’s all about what your interests are and what you want to practice. I took the Fingerpicking, Flatpicking and Strumming Jumpstart courses to begin with, and then I branched into the other Skills courses based on my interests. At some point in the future, you might want to take the Fretboard Wizard course. There is a separate fee for the course, but it’s well worth it, and you own it for life and can revisit it as often as you like. If you didn’t sign up for it initially, TAC offers the course typically twice a year (Spring and Fall).

Welcome to the TAC community @Fehorse ! And congratulations on completing the 30 Days to Play! Wow, you are jumping right in and definitely have a full plate. You’ll make great strides in your guitar journey with everything you’ve working on. Suggestion on creating a video for posting — Start by taping some of your practice sessions in order to become comfortable with the process. Also, we’re not a critical group, and we’re not looking for perfection or judging your playing. It’s an opportunity to allow us to celebrate your guitar journey with you.

Fantastic tune @BethL ! I could totally see and hear a gypsy caravan. Keep up the great work, and I always love to see your smiles when you finish playing. Proof you’re having fun!

At the beginning of my guitar journey, it would have been helpful. But it becomes easier as you become more familiar with scales for the fretting hand and finger/string ownership for the picking hand. If it helps you to remember the fingering my annotating. The Tab, then that’s a great win, but I can also see how TAC annotating the Tab with the fingering would be beneficial to others. Why don’t you send a message to Support with the recommendation.

Great wins @Bill_Brown ! I’m with @stevieblues , my lightbulbs haven’t turned on – I think they’re burned out sometimes.

Sounded great @Jonathandavid against the backing track. Love the mix of low sounds with the higher notes.

Fantastic win and testament @Ddtediejm !

Hi @OhWowMan and welcome to TAC! There is no timeline for any of the Skills courses, but my suggestion would be to focus on the 30 Days to Play first, and then the Next 6 Chords. Then begin the Daily Challenge and if you want to tackle Fretboard Wizard that would be an ideal time. You own Fretboard Wizard for life, so you can take it whenever you want and as often as you want to.

That was really quite good. Enjoyable, melodic, great timing, and a great bend! Keep up the great work!
