Welcome Larsen. I am 65 and just started getting serious myself after not playing for 50 years. Suggestion?? I flew through Fundamentals 1 in about two weeks because as I started playing I found I was able to play all the open chords, so instead of getting bored, I would complete the lesson and then practice a song. Got through fundamentals 1 in about 2 weeks and fundamentals 2 in about a month. Then I stopped and just practiced learning about 10 or 12 country and old rock songs so I could play around a campfire. Now I am slowing down and practicing every single lesson on Country 1 and Country 2. It might take me a year to complete them both, but its time well spent. I have to admit that fundamentals had me bored. Also I didnt practice as often. Now that I am comfortable with a number of songs, the desire is there to practice every day!! What I do to document is I listed all the chapters in a three subject college ruled notebook and I listed each page as I start with Chapter 1 Acoustic Foundation, and then Unit one Basic Strumming. Completed each lesson, example Lesson 1 Strumming All 4 and the time 3:31. each one on one line and skipping a space. When I completed the first Unit, I ended up with about half a page showing all six lessons and then the bottom half of the page I put in notes. Any questions I had and then sent to the forum. Hope this helps. Guitar Tricks is the best!!
