Played bass the whole time I played in bands during the 80's in Minneapolis. That was fun!! Self taught and played with very good musicians. End of the 90's got to take on life. Music was always there, joined a choir 2009 to keep my mind in music.January 2026 Joined TAC and started as if I had never played before. It is THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER DONE when it comes to learning about music and playing guitar. Looking forward to the rest of the years and all of the new things I will learn through TAC

I have been playing guitar for many years, but I was completely stuck at the first four frets of the guitar, but I was determined to step out of my comfort zone and I can believe how much better my playing has gotten since joining this program! I would and have already recommended it to many people, I love the teaching style, I love the weekly challenges and I just cannot say enough good things about it! I told I play at church, and I truly stepped out of my comfort zone and I could not be happier. I have always call my guitar my happy place and it is truly what I love to do!

Encouragement for my fellow Acoustic challenge members. I’ve now competed 495 sessions following Tony’s methodology -- almost 2 years! I just turned 75, and after thinking about really learning to play acoustic guitar, my research said Tony's Challenge was the way to do it -- cost effectively! And it has really worked! I highly recommend those of you that are just starting out try it for three months. I am actually playing songs - flat picking, finger picking and just playing chords while I sing. Most importantly I’m having a blast. Try it!!

I know I'm not alone in that one of the main obstacles I thought I faced in learning guitar from scratch was not being able to stick with it and make it a habit. After a little over two months, I have to say that I'm not only sticking with it, I'm bordering on obsession. And that is a good thing! I love practicing each day and I think it a lot about when I'm not. I give Tony and his approach, the practice material, and his manner of teaching, most of the credit for this. I'm very happy with TAC.I like the daily challenges and the skill courses, but it can be really hard to get it down sometimes, particularly chord transitions. There are frustrations (I'm looking at you F Major and barre chords). I know I have to be patient and remind myself that I am only two months into this, but I'm really have fun and know I'm getting better by the day.

Tony's Acoustic Challenge has so change the world of my guitar playing. I am on a 118 consecutive days streak. Now I haven't always been able to play the challenges well. A few were Greek to me. Some where a piece of cake. Today's challenge will take another cup of strong coffee to master putting this weeks lessons all into order. Yet every one of them were fun. I have and am learning so so much. Enjoying my mornings with Tony's daily challenges more so than the coffee. And that my friend is saying a lot. Thank you Tony

My First Impression of TACI am glad I found TAC. As a boy I had a guitar tutor who sat smoking trying to teach me to play Beatles songs on a guitar which had too high action, so I could not press the strings down enough to play it. This stopped me playing as the teacher only seemed to want money and did not try to help me. From my twenties until now I dabbled at playing with a properly set up Westfield guitar. Luckily I found you as my last hope of getting proficient at playing before I leave this world. I would not hesitate to recommend you as I find the courses good at helping me make small wins daily.I think it is best for older people who accept it takes consistent playing daily for years to make good progress, as with any instrument.
