Truth!

I'd have to say my favourite memory was just signing up. It kind of made a commitment for me.

I put the guitar down decades ago, and picked up for a few frustrating hours once or twice during that time. (If anyone knows what it's like remembering what you could do and can't, anymore, you know what mean.)

So, one day I did it on a whim, trying to get constructive with my time... I dove into it for the first year, did the core lessons and different genres after that. Money was tight, but bought the next subscription as kind of a present for myself and kept going.

I definitely have not 'kicked my own butt' enough to get all I should, but I keep coming back because I keep learning... 4 or 5 years, not even sure how many now.

I find GT and it's instructors have a sincere willingness to pass on knowledge. I probably would have shoved my old acoustic back in the closet after a few weeks or months if not for GT. Now I've got a herd of amps and pedals and gits and am always dumping more money out on more...

Um... Thanks GT? ;)
