Totally agree with thisā¦ just watched Justinās āFlexing Time: The Falling Leafā lesson again yesterday & he starts off playing a Classical guitar. He does pretty well with the Baroque piece at the beginning of the lesson, but you can see that itās not really his ācomfort zoneā.
I, for one, really enjoy his teaching style more than any other online guitar teacher & would love to see him host more guest players like the Joe Robinson lesson (kinda like the guest singers on several song lessons)! That was a cool one on fingerstyle playing!

P.S. I voted for Rock, Fingerstyle & Other (slide guitar).
As another I would suggest Fusion, itās a genre thatās quite difficult to find any decent information on. I accept that itās very much a crossover from Jazz sprinkled with other genres but itās not easy to pick up on your own. I donāt know how many others would be interested, so obviously it would be dependent upon the amount of interest.
I was just thinking of fusion the other day for this topic after going down a rabbit hole a few days ago. Though, Iād still love a BLIM Advanced course and an Acoustic Blues Immersion Course. Justin will just have to cut down on holidays.
If we have now decided that Justin is going to cancel his holidays at our expense, he may start building an equally cool piano course and expand that piano learning lesson in 15 minutes of lessons similar to the beginner guitar up to and includingā¦grade 3 or so
First blim groups 2 -3 etc, he will probably think
Hmm ā¦ that could then after BLIM groups 2, 3 and maybe 4 and 5 perhaps just be the right time for my āotherā Immersion course choice = song writing
The poll has been running for a few days now and perhaps there is a trend starting to show with fingerstyle and rock pulling ahead, although this might change, however not clear what is in the other category.
I donāt think it is a secret ballot so I thought I would own up and say I voted for fingerstyle and country with reasons.
Fingerstyle - Justin does cover the basics in the early Grades and the Folk Finger Style course but I think this only scratches the surface. For instance Travis Picking I think is covered in only one lesson in the Folk course. I am not a BLIMer so donāt know how the course is structured but I would imagine is technique and style of various artists. As fingerstyle can be used in lots of genres it would perhaps be best suited to a paid for Graded Course like the strumming one.
Country - as only an acoustic guitar player myself, I think country songs work well when playing and singing solo. I take on board the often comment ā cowboy chordsā but there is different styles of country songs that work well and have different techniques.
Iām not a blimmer myself and I doubt I could commit to a 6-month course, but I think any future immersion course should focus on a topic that Justin really feels comfortable with. Iām sure the quality of the content and the delivery of the BLIM course is at least on the same level as the āusualā courses and song lessons, and thatās something that should be preserved. Instead of requesting any genre-specific courses, I say the next one should be about anything that Justin feels really passionate about and has the amount of knowledge to share with us.
I agree. An in-depth fingerstyle course would be fun. I recently started the solo blues fingerstyle with matchmysound and it looks fun. But, itās really different than BLIM. Itās like hereās a song and how to play it and it doesnāt go in depth about the style, the concepts and the techniques.
he may start building an equally cool piano course and expand that piano learning lesson in 15 minutes of lessons similar to the beginner guitar up to and includingā¦grade 3 or so 
Pianoā¦yesā¦this is a great idea! The one that makes more sense and something I would follow
