Hello everyone!

After a long hiatus of 15 years I began to play the guitar again. I'm not a novice but I'm not an advanced guitarist also, nevertheless I've been following the Core system from Fundamentals 1 to refresh my knowledge and fill any gap I may have.

With all this said I'd like to know if I can get some kind of guitar knowledge checklist somewhere, something that could help me organize and plan my studies... for example:

Open Chords Major (From A to G) - Check
Open Chords Minor - Check
Open Chords Dim - Check
Open Chords Sus - Check
"
"
And so on and on
Something like that would be very helpful to find and fill any holes I may have...

Thanks!

I know what you mean, and I wanted something like that too. I haven't seen anything like that but maybe you can just make up a list as you progress thru the fundamentals courses and then into the blues, country, and/or rock lessons. I actually use OneNote on my Surface Pro to make my practice list. Each new chord or progression I learn gets jotted down and I usually go thru the list before starting a new video.

What is your favorite music genre to perform???

For that genre you can set the check list that will include

1. Chords/Progressions/Scales
2. Performing techniques (right/left hand)
3. Rythmical, speed excercises
4. Songwriting (if you need it)
5. Improvisation (if you need it)

While you're getting better - you'll discover new areas to add to your check list to move forward)))
Good luck!!

It really depends on what you want to learn. Is there a specific genre(s) you want to play? Specific songs, styles, or guitar players you want to play like? If you want to play blues or rock, it wouldn't really help to learn to play fingerstyle, or vice versa:)

Ask yourself what specifically you want to be able to play, and that will help you get a better idea of what you personally need to learn to be able to play it.
