  1. @NinaJean you are talking basically “chord melodies “

    Steve relies a lot on music theory knowledge 

    you may be ‘above’ the simple playing skills in early part of LMG, but Steve puts in a ton of music theory into each lesson esp session 7&8. (Which I’ve ignored for too long)

    how’s your theory, can you pick out a flat 3rd in a F scale in your head fast?

    yes you will need clean barre chords for fingerstyle 

    can you do both courses at once? Possibly. If you’re just looking at the fingering tab in the fingerstyle course.

    @DianeB might be able to fill in more than me

  2. Hmm odd article with nobody new,

    sounds like StringJoy ‘phishing’ article 

    I know StringJoy has been pounding the Les Paul group I’m on on Facebook,

    they have a string tree to add to the headstock to an LP claiming it stabilizes tuning issues on Les Paul’s

    and today I just saw someone “try” StringJoy” strings on said Facebook group.

    wonder if they’ve done this for “free advertising “ 🤔

  3. Looking at my phone was small but I went oh open chords, a number of people would poo poo it cause of the “open cowboy chords”

    then I zoomed in and went oh, not open chords per se , I see the C on looks like 8th fret

  4. @matonanjin it’d be way too loud for my wife, thinks acoustics are loud enough (too loud) . Doesn’t understand you need a certain volume to equal certain tone,

    I need a a battery powered amp, that’s loud enough for a large picnic but doesn’t weigh 30lbs like my Traynor TVM50 lead acid battery 10” speaker amp

  5. @Strings the Gibson Skills House Lessons have been removed from Gibson. 

    Steve's YouTube channel has years of videos on it. 

    and the Fretboard Series is now a couple of years old that Steve put together

    I don't think the LM&G is not as popular today as it was due to the lack of marketing via 'old' Legacy Learning.

    just the number of posts done by new LM&G learners is proof. so really you only have mostly "old" learners such as myself who should have completed the course years ago but have been sidetracked by various adventures as playing live in church in front of 700~1500 people.

    The Song Hits was created by Steve to be the 'companion' to the LM&G learning course. (except where he had to put the full song in lower levels or pay royalties twice)

    Long-Short answer: no nobody has tied it all in as LM&G on it's own is long and easy to venture out of it once you hit Session 7&8.

     

  6. Yikes!

    Hopefully not as bad as my wife's elderly friend who got a text from "Amazon " saying there's activity on your account,  reply yes it was you or no it wasn't .

    Next thing she gets is a phone call from "Amazon fraud department " , they say to her they need a money transfer to be able to trace the fraudulent access, and don't contact your bank till "thier" investigation is complete,,, lost thousands before her bank locked the accounts.

  7. @dbvirago @matonanjin ahh I see what you're saying. 

    The Legacy Learning site says out of stock.

    Drums have been like that for a couple of years, 

    Bass Guitar was taken off in like its 2nd yr.

    I see even on Steve's own store he is only able to sell his blues course, 

    Only the books for all the courses he wrote are for sale, no videos,.

    Can only guess that Legacy owns the video rights, and sadly Legacy is slowly demising. 

    Looks like Guitar Center , or Ebay will be your only choices 

    Doubt Legacy will order more copies. 

    Only thing we can hope for is Legacy's video contract ends soon and Steve can be free to produce his own copies 

  8. @dbvirago well you're at the right website now .

    Yes all the DVD's that @Steve Krenz did with the old Legacy Learning System many years ago talk about the old Learn and Master support web forum. 

    Steve supports all his students here on his own Guitar Gathering forum

    There is a section for L&M course questions found here at this link

    https://www.guitargathering.com/community/index.php?/forum/6-learn-master-course-questions/

    The question of DVD vs streaming.  

    That question has come up often over the years,  Legacy did put up the basic guitar course on stream, but that site folded yrs ago. 

    Most of us just "rip" Steve's lessons into mp4 video and put on our tablets the courses as needed.

    Don't think there is any plans to try streaming. 

    Steve is doing an amazing finger style retreat next week.

    https://gx169.infusionsoft.app/app/storeFront/showProductDetail?productId=336

    And usually does live lessons most weeks except when out of town, see live lessons at top of page.

    Long short answer,  nope DVDs won't stream soon if ever

  9. @Matt_B nothing to get wrong, it's all good don't worry 

    Steve teaches music reading right from the start, 

    If you read the music notes then look at the tab you'll spot it. Not a big deal 

    TAB was put in the early lessons as its just another way guitar notes can be taught and some people like working with TAB. Its drops away quickly.

    But Steve prefers us the read music., best to work with the music reading 

    After a while you'll work with both. 

    TAB does come back in Finger Style session 10 but by then you'll be a pretty good player 

  10. @Matt_B you can do it. 

    Don't worry about the Master part in the title of the course, 

    Session 1 and 1b is just to get your hands moving , don't spend more than 2 weeks on session 1 and 1b

    Session 2 is where your journey begins. 

    It's all part of Steve's master plan, of play, learn the notes, learn the theory., get better than just watching YouTube riffs

    There's still lots of great knowledgeable players here, that are able to help with questions. 

    Just a side note,  there are a couple of mistakes in the TAB in the lower sessions,  try to read the music as presented,  it will pay off

     

    In my signature line there's a Words of Guitar Wisdom.. full of QA over time, it's a good browse
