After speaking with a colleague, I joined GT last November. When new to a site such as this, it can be quite intimidating. I always like to look around before jumping in so it took me a while to actually sit down and play along with the lessons. I have some experience but started with the Core Learning system from the beginning. This is by far the best beginning system for learning guitar that I have seen. Lessons are easy to follow and the instructors are well versed in delivering these lessons in an easy to understand manner.
I have a tendency to skip around because the skills can't come fast enough for me and I have to remind my self daily that slow and steady wins the race and nothing comes quickly. I've been practicing almost every day for the last two weeks and it is my goal to practice every day, although I know this is almost impossible.
I can honestly say to anyone out there that I have learned more in the last two weeks from playing along with these lessons than I did for almost 4 months of live instruction. The lessons are easy to follow and the instructors do a wonderful job of explaining. This site has re-juvinated a life long fascination with the guitar and I can't wait until I am able to pick up and play like my peers. Thanks GT!!
Rock on everyone,
Tim
