Very Nice,

I’ll work on getting a video posted here. I love playing that song too.

Very nice, very smooth! You make me want to practice more!

That is Awesome! Thanks for sharing with us, and Tomas is right, you have a beautiful voice!

Very Nice, Great Job, that was wonderful!

Hi Morris,

Glad to see you here. My Dad gave me my guitar almost 50 years ago, but I was busy raising a family, work, and a bunch of other excuses, I started taking lessons with Tomas after I retired. Its been really fun for the last 3 years here and plan to continue.

(and yes, “Dust in the Wind” is the song I always wanted to play too, and now…

Hey, Sorry Tomas, I thought he was looking for the daily monthly lessons.

Hi Jordan, it’s called the “Monthly Practice Plan” and should be able to find it on your “Dashboard” or, copy and paste to your browser after you are signed in,,

Monthly Practice Plan – August 2021

Hope that helps 🤠

Hi Paul,

I have been using these D’Addario nylon strings. I like the tone, and I change them about every 6 months as well. They make several different sizes, you’ll have to experiment and see what you like best.

Most all the strings they make now are very good. I use Ernie Ball strings on my electric guitar.

Good luck, 😎

Hi Tomas,

Ok, I see what you did there. (and you added an extra course on the “Beginner’s Journey” after I finished them and moved on.) So I’m going back and finishing that before moving on. Makes sense now and I feel I can get back on track. Thanks.

Ok Tomas, in the “Instant Pop Hit 1-5-6-4” you first play a G-D-Am-C. I’ve never seen a Am or C played with that way (Am and C with the B&E strings 3rd fret) Then in key of C, you play the regular C chord.

So after watching the video a few times, I thought I might have an Idea of chord progression, then started the Quiz, and …. I have NO…

Hi Tomas,

I’ve gone thru the Beginner’s Journey and I’m a bit lost on where to go now.

Whats my next step? (I’m having fun and want to keep it going 🙂 )

Thanks,

Tim

 

Hi Tomas,

Oh boy, where do I start. I’d have to say I love Classic Rock, anything from the Beattles, Stones, Elvis Costello, and Steely Dan. I  love the guitars in Boston, Doobie Brothers, and Lynyrd Skynyrd. I went thru a Cure phase. Not much for “grunge, or country music.

You’d have to list my fav guitar players as Carlos Santana, Stevie…

Hi

Just wanted to introduce myself to everyone, I’m Tim W, a 60 year old retired guy from the Seattle area. My Dad bought my guitar for me when I was 18. Not an expensive guitar, but a nice accoustic and I’ve had it ever since.  I fiddled around with it over the years but didn’t learn anything. After I retired, I thought i’d try and learn how…
