I agree, this seems to be to be the only way to get it to stick. I also go back to the start and there is always something basic that I need to work on. Always areas to improve. I am really enjoying the CGO format and lessons, learning a lot and enjoying it.
@morrow1616 I am really enjoying it too.
It has definitely brought back my love for playing that was lost due to just being so busy with everyday life.
This has been a good reset for me.
Im returning here after a long hiatus and really enjoying it as well. I normally have a very difficult time staying on track with any particular type of music or practice regime, but something about this style just resonates with me.
There are times when my brain is not wanting to take a full lesson so that is hen I’ll utilize the lick library and just get a piece ingrained into my muscle memory.
I also find that the songs are fun to learn in that moving back and forth between the easier traditional versions and the harder versions reinforces them in my brain.
I look forward to chatting with y’all in the future as we continue to learn this wonderful style of music.
I have been practicing for about an hour a day recently. The calluses on my left hand are making it difficult to operate my iPad. Lol
@rinny51 I've found the callouses have made my sense of touch on my left hand fingertips pretty non-existent, too. Guess that's the price we pay to play!
I will be heading on vacation soon for 2 weeks, unfortunately we are flying and i cant take my guitar with me. I also checked to see if there were any guitar stores nearby to go play theirs. no luck 🙁
I guess i will just be stuck trolling the forum LOL
@rinny51Ha, I have the same issue. I was thinking there was something wrong with my IPad.
@rg I have adapted and started using other less calloused fingers. I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks. Lol
Nice
On vacation for a few more days with no guitar. I have been messing around with the piano in the time being lol
@rinny51Cool, my daughter plays. I think it would be fun to learn.
