    Hi again Debra,

    I’ve got a live training (as in live online) this Thursday. Hope you can make it.

    https://realguitarsuccess.com/training/

    Even if you don’t have questions now… sometimes listening to other people’s questions will help with things you didn’t know to ask. Also I have a presentation that your find very helpful in the beginning.

    Hi Denice,

    Welcome!

    I can tell you so many stories about my experiences with unorganized guitar teachers. Oh well… Those days are over.

    I’ve got a live training (as in live online) this Thursday at 4 PM. Hope you can make it.

    Hi Steve,

    Like Jack mentioned I think there’s no one right way to do this. That’s why I’ve included both. There is a certain amount of foundation that like all guitar students to have that I included in this roadmap series.

    Perhaps I can talk about what I had in mind more in the live training this Thursday if you think that would be helpful?

    Let me know.

    Hey Frank… I’ve been watching your progress. Keep up the good work!

    Hope you can make it to the first live training.

    Either way feel free to shoot over any questions you might have that I can talk about during the training (or if more immediate here in the forum).

    Hi Denice… yes, that looks like the right one. Now they have one called plus with additional features. It’s what they call an in-app purchase. They’ll sell it to you from within the app you buy for $5.99.

    Hi Pat,

    I just created an icon (video looking thing) in the left side menu to make it easy to find.

    Hi Ian,

    Good question.

    If you find that yourself fumbling with G it might be a good idea to spend some time working on one form and getting it up to snuff… like this exercise https://realguitarsuccess.com/lessons/c-g-chords/

    I’m thinking possibly 5 minutes a day for about a week kind a thing.

    But you are gonna need both of these forms anyway. Sounds like what you’re doing is fine if it’s not creating undue stress.

    BTW… we usually call finger “4” the pinky… so the fingering would be either 1, 2 & 3 or 2, 3 & 4.  We don’t number the thumb… even though you might use it occasionally.

    I understand what you mean anyways. Just wanted you to know.

    Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden. I see we were brought up in the same era 🙂

    I had no idea Black Sabbath was still out there doing concerts.

    Welcome aboard Roy. I look forward to supporting you.

    Tomas

    P.S. Your Black Sabbath comment inspired me to try something on my classical guitar…
