Which course first, which lessons first, how to use the resources etc.

Devin's teaching methods are straight forward and user friendly, as he breaks down each song, bar

by bar and includes tips on technique and timing along the way.  Many times the songs include backing

tracks that you can play along to.  Have fun!

Devin's recent arrangement of Wildwood Flower in G would be one that I would start with.

After that, I'd consider Arkansas Traveler and then maybe Cold Frosty Morning.  Enjoy.
