Took the plunge and now eagerly awaiting the DVDs to get started with this program.

Slow the metronome down to fit the hardest section/measure you’re working on; then you can bring the entire song along as you improve. A great idea is to use the metronome to practice syncing your rhythm to the backbeat on beats 2 and 4. Great for “losing” the monotone sound of beginning guitar students and taking a step towards sounding like a musician. I also find counting out loud (or to myself) is a great technique for practice. Hopefully I didn’t walk on too many previous posts; and yes, I’m not where I want to be yet in this regard.

When I watch Tommy E. play this, I always get a smile on my face. So I hope I can pass the good vibes this song gives me on to all of my guitar friends here. Wim.

Hello Everyone, I'm new to your site, and planning on coming to the 2019 Guitar Gathering in June. I'm not sure what to say beyond what I put in my profile. I puttered around with learning Guitar since 2007 (mostly online like YouTube stuff), then dove head first into it after my Wife passed away in 2015. I have joined a local group of people that enjoy playing/listening to Guitar Music (called Guitar League) here in Southern Wisconsin. I'm at a stage where I've done about 2 years of Music Theory (Chords - Open, CAGED, starting alternate fingerings), Scales (CAGED/Box and 3NPS, Starting Modes) Riffs to practice techniques (too many to list LOL), and just starting to sing (Campfire style) while playing. I guess I do mainly Classic Rock, Blues, and am just starting on the Jazz Standards (but I'm sure I have missed a TON of things along my path of learning Guitar). My end goal for playing Guitar is not actually to perform on stage or record, but to Jam with good people and to enjoy all types of music while learning to add a little Beauty to the World.

Hi All, I guess this is my second introduction. I am new to the Guitar world. I have always wanted to play guitar. Finally, my journey has started last week with Learn & Master Guitar. I spent the past week playing with a lefty guitar. Thanks to the feedback and suggestions of Steve, Dan Brown, and Tjmeyers i will give the righty guitar a try starting today. * My previous post can be found below: Thank you All!

Hi All- My wife and I started the L&M course a year ago and have been lurking on this site since. I finally decided to join in. I'm getting close to finishing Lesson 6 and moving forward. I must admit that I didn't know what I was getting ourselves into when we started the course, but the time and effort that we've put in have been rewarding. I recently started the Speed & Agility Workouts as well. We own three guitars now and look forward to continuing our journey. I'm glad that I chose this course and have have this community to learn from. Greg
