Hi Paul, welcome to the community. I’m 68 and from North Carolina in the US. I’m glad you found Justine’s site and that you enjoy learning to play guitar. I also enjoy the song lesson videos and learn as many playing tips from those as I get from the main lessons, Have fun learning new songs.
Hello Paul.
Welcome to JustinGuitar and the Community. It’s great you have found Justin’s website. His song lessons are superb and are many people’s first introduction to his teaching style. In the courses on the website his lessons are also superb. He offers structure and a sure path to follow from the very beginning. Thousands and thousands have learned using his lessons. If you’re fully self-taught can I recommend that you go back to his grade 1 beginner lessons and self assess to see if you have any gaps, or bad habits to fix or find useful tips and tricks to add to your skill set. It is definitely worth checking the lessons on the website. All have additional information, some downloadable content and each has a link to a dedicated discussion topic here in the community.
If you need any help with a lesson specific question or with any general guitar learning question or navigating the community then do not hesitate to ask. There are many good folk here who will happily offer help and encouragement to those coming up behind them on Justin’s Beginner Courses. They embody and carry the pay-it-forward ethos we have nurtured for many years in our community. There are many old hands too who have years and (hopefully) a bit of wisdom they can bring as they give their support to those hitting the road blocks - which we all do.
Just ask if you need anything.
Cheers

Thanks Richard. I’m sure I have plenty of bad habits that I’ve built up over the years. Going back to basics is probably a good idea.
