Good morning all,
I just purchased the 2.0 course and a couple of others. Working through them now and looking forward to improving as a guitar player.
I’d appreciate some advice or guidance on my guitar journey. I just crossed the three year mark and I’m not as far along as I’d hoped. When I first started playing, I told others that I was waiting for that “ah-ha” moment where I look at the fretboard and the heavens open up. I’d understand exactly what I was trying to accomplish, would know exactly how to practice to get better, etc.
Instead, three years in and all I really have is a memorization of the notes on the fretboard and slow progress trying to efficiently play scales, awkward song playing, etc.
I know everyone learns at a different pace, but I can’t help but think I should be further along. I’ve done a combination of private lessons with a seasoned player and online lessons like Guitar Tricks.
How can I apply my knowledge of where notes are on the fretboard to something bigger and speed up my progress towards that “ah ha” moment?
Appreciate everyone taking the time to read this.
