@Moonhare This was such a great video of your journey, and what a fantastic one it has been. I’m so glad you were able to be there for your friend, Chewy. What a great testament of love and support. Keep at it, and based on your background there is no doubt you will pick it up rapidly. Maybe in a year you can post a true guitar testament to your friend. Keep on plunking!!

Kids are so responsive to music. I think it’s great that you were able to 1) improv and 2) make your nephew laugh like that. Great wins @Lange22

It’s a definite win when you can transition to and from barre chords smoothly

Hey @CliffyB – TAC did away with the individual gear forum, so this is as good a place as ever to post your gear question or comment.

MemberMay 15, 2021 at 12:31 am in reply to: I’ll just randomly decide that B minor Is my favorite chordThat sounds reasonable to me @Carl1909 . I actually like the B minor chord. It grows on ya once you are able to play it consistently. Keep at it, and soon it will be a true favorite. Keep on plunking!

Excellent picking there @ScottyMac . I can see how the timing might be challenging in a few places. Laughed at your closing remarks. Funny how that little red light can make it so much more difficult to get a clean take. Your work paid off!

Hi @fingster and welcome to TAC, and congratulations on completing the 30 days to play. Have you completed the Next 6 chords that come after the challenge? After I completed those, I began doing the daily challenges for the minimum of 10 minutes per day, and there are the Skills courses. There is no set path for taking any of the courses – whatever you’re interested in is the next logical step. I personally did the Strumming, Fingerpicking Jumpstart and Flatpicking jumpstart. The 5 day challenges are the newest courses. There is also the Fretboard Wizard course. That is a separate cost, but I thought it was well worth it. TAC offers it twice a year (Spring and Fall) and they should be opening up registration in the near future. Good luck and have lots of fun!

I’m sorry you’re having to experience that T.J. That has to be scary and frustrating. I have some neuropathy, and I find my fingers spasm or freeze (similar t o being locked), and I have a hesitation of the fingers as well. Hopefully you’re going through some physical therapy for stretching and strength. I like Jeff’s suggestions, and I might try those stretches too. Hang in there and remember these things take time to work through.

Nice performance @AttyTJ . Sounded like very tricky wording to say. I would have tripped all through the lyrics.

Hi @Dave.r.porter. There are several ways to play many chords, and if the 3 finger G works for you, then I say it is the correct one. Tony prefers the 4 finger chord because it’s fuller, but you can use the 3 fingered one in place of it.
