    @Gordon419 Welcome to TAC, and congratulations on completing the 30 days to play. The daily lessons are important to build a practice routine, and having Add, you should appreciate the structure of the week with every Monday being Technique, every Tuesday aLick, Every Wednesday a scale and improv, every Thursday on Rhythm, and every Friday Chord transitions.

    As for the skills courses, I found the Jumpstart courses to be very beneficial in the beginning. The order you take any skills courses is up to each individual. What are your interests and goals. The suggestion of participating in the quarterly guitar party is great, because there is a focus on your next 90 days and setting goals.

    Good luck with whatever direction you choose.

    Hi @trevor_finally_learns_guitar – The thumb typically stays centered to the chord you’re playing. It acts as an anchor and it helps keep your fretting fingers curved correctly while playing chords, and it will also allow you to transition to the next chord faster too.

    Hi @Canadart and welcome to TAC!

    One of the best sites I know of for everything chords is https://www.guitar-chord.org/ (address is hidden by TAC, but just hover over the blank line and click on it). With regard to Nashville number system, there are a lot of printable examples on line. A few are attached (if TAC doesn’t upload the photos, just Google printable Nashville number system chart).

    Glad to have you back. The lessons teach you the skills needed for the music you want to play and improve upon. They go hand and hand. You’ll find that you will improve in playing the songs you are working on.

    Well that settles it. I dedicate this song to you and your beautiful wife. :). Thank you for your observations. I feel more relaxed, and I think that is helping me play and sing (if that’s what it’s called – haha).
