@outdoorgator I tried uploading the photos, but for some reason they aren’t available once I do uplaOad them. I’m asking Support if they don’t allow photos anymore.
It is definitely an older guitar with a lot of character. It’s too bad that it wasn’t taken care of. Will you be following through on the repairs?

Congrats @stevieblues ! I don’t pay attention to the daily streak anymore, because there are days that I practice but it doesn’t involve aTAC (such as Saturday and Sunday). I’m simply accountable to myself that I’ve played daily.
-
That’s very cool @dinman1949aol-com !

@Kman-Sr I guess the wife is paying attention and she knows the importance to you.

@Jnc51 Unfortunately, once a month has passed, you cannot access a lesson unless you favorited it, or if you know the name of the lesson then you could find other TAC members that favorited the lessons by going to their profile and clicking on favorites. I tend to favorite most lessons, and your more than welcome to look in my favorites.
Also, all is not lost, because the lessons tend to rotate back around about every 8-9 months.
If you plan on being out of town otpr on vacation, just favorite the lessons before you go. Then you’ll have access to the, when you’re back.

@Wyatt I agree that is a big, even huge win! I remember when the same thing happened to me. I even downplay my ability nowadays, but not as often as I used to. I am a guitar player, and I actually play with my windows open now. Before that would have been unheard of.
Congrats on a HUGE win!

@outdoorgator , I just sent you an email. In the future, you can just have people send you messages through your profile. That way you wouldn’t have to give your personal email out.
You’ll have a great backstory to the guitar at the very least.
I’d go back and tell the lady at the flea market that she’d be lucky to get $20. If the guitar were that age and worth more, then why did she have it buried under other items? Also her way of storing the item depreciated the value, because it led to cosmetic damage, possibly the structural damage, which could have been worse since it wasn’t a temperature and humidity controlled atmosphere.
I have a 1973 Guild F30 that was purchased for $100 at a garage sale back in the late 70’s. Turns out it is pretty valuable. Couple thousand. I was using it when I first began playing and with TAC, but then I figured I should probably keep it in its hard case most of the time so as not to damage it. I pull it out every couple of months just to check it, clean it, play it a little. It has a beautiful aged look to the wood.

@the-old-coach I remember well when you joined. I miss the old forums where there was an avenue to welcome the newcomers. The feeling of being welcomed, accepted and a part of meant so much to be when I joined, and the group carried me through the rough seas beginning my journey. I’m glad I could be there for you then, as well as now.
Thank you for your continued support on my journey and for your encouragement. 🙂

@JoeT 😮 How are you accessing them? I’ve tried through my phone, my iPad, and on my desk top. The only reason I know what the guitar looks like, is because I had them emailed to me.

@That_Guy Please let Victoria at Support know, because she says she’s not aware of a problem’ and that no one else has brought up a problem. She can’t open an IT ticket with just one person’s complaint. There has to be a few complaints or service requests for assistance.

@outdoorgator That’s too funny about the car with a smoker. The difficulty there might be finding someone who even smokes in their car haha. You’d have better luck with a smoke den or humidor shop with a smoke room. Leave it in there, and it will quickly age from the smokers.
I spoke with Service regarding the photos. As far as Victoria knows, there hasn’t been a change in policy on photos. She suggested resizing the photos, but I wasn’t given that option when reviewing them. I sent her the photos, and she’s going to try and upload them here.

I’ve heard nothing but good things about the dreadnoughto junior. I hope you enjoy it.

Thank you for the very kind words @stevieblues ! I am having fun, and I have seen such an improvement the last few months. Here’s to the next 1000!

Really appreciate you saying there’s been improvemment and it’s noticeable. There were several times I questioned my ability to play. It was weird though. Almost overnight things just clicked in my brain and made sense, and I was able to transition between chords faster, keep an in time rhythm, and my vocals are finally loosening up and allowing me to sing (somewhat more in tune), and strumming a multitude of different strum patterns. Hoping to do some fingerpicking in the next 6 months.
