  1. I was one of the original students who used the Learn & Master course when it first came out, prior to its association with Gibson.  I had no knowledge of guitar prior to that and found sessions 1 through 9 to be foundational in my development.  I danced around the other sessions getting up to session 17.

    Around that time I decided to take a detour into classical guitar.  I just completed Grade 4 at the online school Classical Guitar Corner Academy by Simon Powis.  I have now decided to complete the Gibson L&M course with detailed focus (and the bonus resource sessions) and then study the other courses (i.e. Fingerstyle and Blues).  Along the way I have learned to enjoy the journey of learning.  Steve's saying, "Learn all you can" rings true all day every day.

    For accountability, I thought I’d begin a progress journal thread noting my victories, challenges, questions et cetera.  Perhaps some others would like to create their own progress journal?  If you aim at nothing, you hit it every time 😀

  2. I agree with the above thoughts.  I was one of the original students who used the Learn & Master course when it first came out, prior to its association with Gibson.  I had no knowledge of guitar prior to that and found sessions 1 through 9 to be foundational in my development.  I danced around the other sessions getting up to session 17.

    I just watched this video Steve recorded in November 2020.  It is one of the best explanations I've heard on how to succeed on your guitar journey.

    @Strings can I be as bold to ask were you've gotten copies of the Legacy Learning Series courses written by Steve Krenz?

    Reason I ask is I have all of Steve's courses, and everyone of them either came with a real printed manual or a pdf added to one of the disks for me to print

    Thanks Doug.  I bought it directly from Legacy Systems.  It’s on my shelf.  As you can gather I haven’t dug into yet.  I will check it out.  Thanks.

    @Strings  In the Fingerstyle course lesson book, there are basic, intermediate, and full versions of "Ode to Joy". If you're interested, let me know, and I'll send it by private message. I don't think Steve would mind.

    Thanks Diane.  I actually have that course too.  I will check my book.  Have you worked on the Fingerstyle course yet?  Looks daunting!
