Robs Learning Log

OK bit of an update - had a new arrival which has caused much acoustic strumming, still not really cracked on with more lessons but a lot of time at the fretboard is helping, still struggling with some fingerpicking , watching Justins alternative tuning video.

Fabulous grain and colour on the Maton, Rob.

BEAUTIFUL :heart_eyes:
And this is the 2nd time I see such a standard in 2 days… do they give it with the guitar for free or something?? … I want that too … also looking for a suitable guitar :innocent:

Not sure I’m quite up to recording it yet but another month? Or something? Just trying to memorize it all isn’t easy!

So apparently its my 1 year anniversary on Justin Guitars website

Updates on my thread have kinda slowed, as has my progression through lessons being somewhere in the beginner 3 course but progress still continues!

I’ll get back to the lessons one day soon, but playing a lot of fingerstyle has taken up a lot of time recently and thats been fun.

Just been blasting out some RATM bombtrack though with a friday beer and kicking back letting loose and thats also good!

I’d like to thank Justin once again for providing both the huge volume of lessons on his website plus all the support tools and forum etc. Doubt he’ll personally read it but who knows!

Cheers everyone else for your help and support also.

Happy JGversary.

Bombtrack is fun to play, I do bits of that one sometimes as well. How’s the intro though?! Super fast, too fast for me… need more practice :joy:

Cheers David!

Congratulations Rob on your 1 year anniversary. I can totally relate to getting side tracked with fingerstyle blues. I have no idea what RATM Bonbtrack is so that’s something I’ll have to look into when I’ve got some free time especially if it goes well with beers and kicking loose.

Heres the video on it, channels great

I guess you were either into that kind of stuff or not… RATM are the best rap metal band of all time.
