I see that there hasn't been any recent activity on this thread, or on any thread in the Fingerstyle section, for that matter. So I'm not sure this will be seen, but worth giving it a shot.
I found this particular thread very helpful. I want to learn solo acoustic guitar, or solo fingerstyle guitar. By that I mean I want to play the melody and accompaniment by myself. No other musicians. No singing. I have the main L&M series and remember trying it years ago but stopping because it was very basic in the beginning ( am beyond those for the most part) and there was lots of strumming (which I don't want to do, especially with a pick).
That said, I am just launching into Session One of the Fingerstyle series and can already see that there must be some 'foundation' upon which this is built. Now, after reading here, it looks like I might want to return to the main L&M series and work my way through the first 10 sessions. Is that correct? (I have been attempting to learn guitar for more than 10 years; have had several teachers; spent lots of time trying on my own. I struggle with finding and maintaining direction on this journey.)
Bonus question: Can I do both at the same time, or do I really need to get through the 10 main L&M sessions BEFORE launching into the fingerstyle series?
Thanks for reading, and gold stars to anyone responding! 🙂
