zac,

im a six month beginner on GT too. i have completed core fundamentals one but was so frustrated with chapter 3 tab reading and practice i skipped past it. i now know that its an impt part of the songs we all know well and have looped back around to patiently figure out tab reading and practice again.

you are not alone. it has helped me to pause the screen when the tab is shown to practice solo and to set the speed a bit slower then normal when playing with lisa and the band.

good luck. don't give up!. sometimes i think ill just jump in for a 15 guitar practice session and it turns in to a 2.5 hour event. im still having fun and playing often without looking at my left hand chords. its a great skill/ goal while we are all home bound too!

take care!
