I've been a dabbler for several decades not improving at all. I did some Justin guitar and I like his enthusiasm as well as yours. What I like about your method is that you break it up into bite size chunks. It's easy to get overwhelmed if you just get the tab and have at it. I can learn that way, but I feel it takes me longer to absorb it. The fact that you also live in our beautiful state of Montana was the final kick I needed to enroll. Go Griz!
