Welcome aboard, David! Glad you found Justin and this community.

Maybe you can use both to learn so it’s not a complete “waste” of money. :slight_smile:
Wish you all the best and loads of fun on your learning journey! :smiley:

Hi David. You’re just a bit ahead of me… I started 4 days ago… fingers are killinggg me… that’s with a couple of 10-20 minute sessions a day… out of curiosity do you remember how long it took for the soreness to noticeably subside? I’m excited for that day :joy:

Welcome David. Justin is indeed a great teacher. Hopefully, you’ll be able to get something out of your Fender Play though.
