Congratulations on 20 years a wonderful achievement. :grinning:

Only picked up a guitar 18 months ago after a gap of more than fifty years and your lessons have taken well beyond my expectations when I started.

Watched your Twenty Years video last night, very interesting had been wondering about all the studio backgrounds.

Thank You, Justin and this amazing team. You have made learning guitar something most enjoyable and accessible to so many. Loved the video Justin, great to learn the history. I really appreciate you and your way of teaching. Really gives me hope for one day being able to call myself a guitarist :see_no_evil::stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:. Love you guys :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

In his roundmail Justin wrote that he learned to let too much of praise (and negativity) wash over him, so I’ll make it short. It is quite an achievement to follow through with an idea for over two decades. Congratulations, and my sincere thank you to Justin, the team, and to the community! :+1:

Congratulations Justin!
and 1,000 thanks for everything you’ve created here
It’s a very special place indeed

Happy 20 year anniversary!! Really enjoyed the video.
Thanks for everything you all do at Justinguitar.com

It was 20 years ago today
Justin started teaching us to play
We rarely had any style
But he was guaranteed to raise a smile
So may I introduce to you

Thanks Justin, your site has got me back into guitar.

Happy Birthday to Justin Guitar! It was really nice to get this “guided tour” of JC history, this video was really fun and interesting to watch.

I’ve only recently started my JC (and guitar in general) journey, but have “big thanks” to say: I found a very rewarding hobby and I’m making visible progress. Oh, and I also started reading on Stoic philosophy thanks to Justin :slight_smile:

Happy 20th for a wonderful website for learning guitar! Thank you for improving the lives of so many people (me included).

Come on in and make yourself at home. Loads of experienced folks here, who have been travelling down Justin’s pathway on these pages and only too willing to help/

Be good to know a little more about you and your journey. You can share your experiences

Good to see a new face.

Congratulations Justin!!! Wish I would have started 20 years ago. Wishing you continued success!!

Congratulation, Justin, for 20 years of success! I enjoyed the stroll down memory lane and wish you continued prosperity. Your courses are the gold standard. Thank you for all you do.

My heartfelt thanks too to @JustinGuitar and the whole team for what you’ve done and continue to do, your dedication and passion rubs off onto all of us :slight_smile:

And you’ve fostered this superb community as well, bonus!!

I’m a bit late, but best wishes, a happy 20th anniversary, and thanks for everything to Justin and the whole crew behind it. I wouldn’t be playing guitar if it wasn’t for JustinGuitar. :slight_smile:

Thanks for putting this together, Justin. It makes an enormous difference for one to feel that they have a personal relationship with their teacher/mentor. Although the relationship is remote and virtual, I still consider you to be someone I can relate to and having these insights builds that relationship.

My personal journey with the guitar is on an extended pause right now. Paradoxically, it was paused during lockdown, when I lost all interest in continuing the journey to improve my playing, and my lovely Verithin is sitting sadly in its hard case awaiting the day when my interest re-awakens. I know that day will come, but who knows when.

Welcome to the community.
I can hear your guitar :guitar: even here saying “play me, play me” just get it out of the case and strum a few chords and see what that does.
