    Welcome Penny. Thanks for letting us know a little about you.
    One of my favorite electrics is a Fender Squier. I have much more expensive guitars, but I like the sound of that one.
    What styles of music do you like?

    Hi Brian. Welcome to RGS. Thank you for the in-depth introduction. It’s great to get to know you.

    I think I have you all sorted out now with the forum. For some reason it got flagged as spam. I didn’t know that was a possibility but I learn something new everyday. My tech support asked me to monitor your replies and let them know if everything’s working now.

    I’m curious what kinds of music do you listen to and what styles would you like to play?

    I’ve dealt with this for the past couple of years. I manage it with stretching and Ibuprophen.

    Hi Christian,

    No, the course is designed to give you the materials at the correct times when it’s most useful. Previous steps will prepare you for steps coming up.

    If you’re anything like me you’re used to doing things your own way. The best guitar instructor I’ve ever had was the one who asked me to suspend my ideas on how it should go and follow his program. I’m sure glad I did.

    I ask you to consider following my program and see how it works for you. You can always make more decisions in the future.

    This means I’m asking you to forget about downloading all the tabs and chords and trying to practice things out of order. Take the lessons a step at a time and download the materials that are offered (or view them on the screen as a PDF).

    I explain what I’m doing a little at a time along the way. I believe if you give it a shot it will make sense as you progress.

    Hi Grant. No problem. I get called a few names… Michael comes up the most (probably because of my last name Michaud). I thought I’d check in and see how’s it going?

    Hi Rigo, Welcome! It’s nice to learn more about you. I did receive your letter. Thank you. That was very kind.

    No problem with your post about the Beginner course. I really do appreciate it when you let me know something is not working right. I did fix the issue with a Beginner Guitar Intro course. I took the opportunity to add some material and improve it at the same time. Check it out when you get a chance.

    I look forward to hearing more about you and supporting you on your guitar journey.

    Hi Laurlei, Sorry for the delay. I just saw your reply. I’ve fixed the 12 Bar Blues in A Minor track. My assistant will fix the rest on Monday. Thanks for following through on this.

    Hi Laurlei, I’m sorry to hear you’re having difficulties with Backing Tracks. They are playing fine on my end so I can’t tell what you’re experiencing. Please give me a specific one so I can trouble shoot and tell me a little more about what happens when you try to play it. It would help if you write in the comment field below that lesson so you won’t have to explain in detail which lesson it is.

    This is awesome, Jaume. I was particularly impressed with your steady rhythm. Guitar player are notorious for speeding up and slowing down. Good work! Thanks for sharing.
