Excellent strumming and vocals.

That’s a great feat @Al.E . Glad you’re having fun and have progressed and continue to. Very inspirational.

Hey @Dennis.G the YouTube video must be set to private. Wasn’t able to view it.

[Loraine]

Yeah, kinda defeats part of the purpose of saving to favorites, but I automatically hit favorite each day, and then I save a pdf copy of the tab. Would be super nice if TAC could make tabs available when saved as a favorite.

[Loraine]

Fun tune! Looked challenging on the 12 string, but you nailed it. Great job!

[Loraine]

Sounds like a pretty good plan to me. TAC courses are foundational and teach us practice goals of a minimum of 10 minutes per day and your skills will improve. You’ll be able to take your skills outside of TAC and apply them to songs, etc. There are so many great YouTube lessons and sites, such as Justinguitar.com where you can learn songs. Also, if you want to play a song, take the Flatpicking Jumpstart. Fretboard Wizard is a great tool and teaches fundamental theory and helps really open up the fretboard to allow you to go even further. You’re on the right path. Take your yearly goals and break them up into smaller chunks over a 90 day period that will help you reach your goals. This will help you keep your focus on the end result without muddying the waters.

Glad things are beginning to look up @DaveJ . Hang in there and just remember that we all go through playing slumps, which is perfectly normal and okay. It always turns around.

Great win @auntiemah . The pesky pinky and ring finger have minds of their own sometimes. Keep up the great work!

[Loraine]

That’s awesome – Congratulations @MoochasPoochas . Post some pics!

[Loraine]

Those are some great feats @AussieBilly !!

[Loraine]

Great win! I had difficulty with the banjo week too.

[Loraine]

That’s a great win. Anything with the pinky that goes right is a win in my book.

@Whill Welcome to the TAC community! I’ll try to answer your question without confusing you further. Click on the ‘ Play’ tab, and then when you hover over or click on the video it should have a play menu run across the bottom of the screen, and you’ll see a ‘1x’ (this is 100% speed). Click on this, and you can change the speed to slower and then work your way up to 100% or 1x. Hope this helps.

Referring to t he site that now has the songs from the old song vault (they removed the song vault from TAC, but if you had already paid for it they were still making it available offsite. The site I refer to is the song vault site, not TAC.

[Loraine]

The old TAC site was set up a bit differently with 3 different speeds of video to practice with. TAC now just uses the .50-2.00 (I believe these are the speeds). The previous 3 speeds he refers to would be the .50, .75 and the 1.0 typically.
