Taking a VERY long pause, but not quitting

Posted by Yosemite Sam in SamHaylor's Blog, 13 June 2013 · 77 views

When I started with L&M Guitar I was motivated in no small amount by the sheer number of participants on this forum. Reading all the posts and blogs of all the newbies and vets provided the much needed encouragement and reminder that it is indeed possible to learn a new instrument!

I carried on quite faithfully up until about lesson 8/9 when the inde...

Reboot

Posted by folkie in folkie's Blog, 30 May 2013 · 76 views

Allow me to introduce myself. I am so happy to have found the Learn and Master series; it is paced just right for the older beginner (or in my case, the older chorder). My biggest mistake in playing guitar was in skipping all that hen-scratch and fly-speck stuff and going straight to the chord diagrams. Using that knowlege and a couple of good finger pick...

Hi everybody. I am new here but back in the time I played quite a lot.Back in time means 45 years ago when I found out the guitar was a chick magnet.I played finger style and to this day strumming is difficult but I have high hopes.

Note Practice Exercise

Posted by Hillsy in Hillsy's Blog, 30 March 2013 · 236 views

Warming up before tonight's session I stumbled on an exercise for learning the notes in first position.Hold a chord, say a C major, now arpeggiate each string that makes up the chord, name the notes fretted and open, gets the brain going and will also help learn what notes make up the chords your playing, before we get into the 1 4 5 and other chord build...

An Update....

Posted by JTriOxide in JTriOxide's Blog, 08 February 2013 · 270 views

So after working 5 for a couple of weeks, and having the basic chord shapes down I decided to go ahead and move forward, and learn 6 while still working 5.  I think this really helped.  Learning and practicing the strumming patterns while trying to change between chords really helped reinforce what I learned in 5.  At first I went back and worked on lesso...

Posted by CTGull in CTGull's Blog, 04 February 2013 · 340 views

I just realized it’s been over 4 months since my last blog entry. As we all know, Steve’s Fingerstyle course was finally shipped; I think I got mine in early December. I’ve been wanting this badly for nearly a year, so I dove right in. I was able to do all of the beginning exercises nearly immediately, some of the advanced ones took a few days of work to...

The blues....finally

Posted by Blueser100 in Blueser100's Blog, 21 January 2013 · 324 views

After much perseverance, I managed to accomplish a decent, passable "Canon In D" while playing along with Steve's medium speed version, and I have decided it is time to move on. Could it be better, more perfect?  Surely.  But I plan to keep this piece in my repertoire and so I will keep working on it.  When I began Session 10, I could not even...
