I've been dabbling with guitar since I was about 15. I'm 65 now. I finally had time during Covid lockdowns to get serious about learning. I found a great online course that focuses more on leads but what I was actually looking for, and glad I found it, is TAC. Broken up into easily achievable daily challenges, this is a great course to keep one motivated. I'm greatly improving my acoustic guitar skills. Tony is a great teacher. Have y'all considered selling swag? Tee shirts and such? Haven't seen any on the website (unless I missed something). I'm sure you'd sell a lot of tee shirts, ball caps, etc.

Tony, thank you for creating the 30 day fast start lesson plan. I am 74 and needed to find something to stimulate the gray matter. I tried and failed at language as it was not fun, and I was miserable. I had wanted to play guitar when I was a teen in the 60's but never had the money or time. Now, I have both. A friend helped me find & buy a guitar and I worked through several lessons on You Tube. I finally decided that your plan looked the most interesting. After 2 days of lessons and practice, I am stoked! I am actually playing something I recognize on the guitar, Very Slowly! This is fun and I am excited to start each lesson. So far, I am having no difficulty following your instructions and learning the new skills.

I’ve been part of TAC for approximately two months. I am completely new to the guitar.I’ve completed the beginner 30 day challenge, the 5 day into to the daily challenges and two weeks into the daily TAC. Lessons are simple to access and the modules are well planned and executed. The supplemental sheets and literature also contributed tremendously to my success. Your statistics and plans are updated each time you log in, which really helps. Each lesson explains the exercise for the day and how that will be part of the weekly plan, and what you’ll be practicing. The video is clear and concise and while at times it can seem a bit overwhelming, you can replay it till it makes sense.I have found the exercises really, really challenging and sometimes frustrating. That said, the challenges are designed to push you and you will always learn something new and useful that will add to your success. The small accomplishments really make learning fun!

Tony has put a lot of thought behind these lessons as they are structured to be fun, have transferable skills and never get stuck in a rut of just learning a few songs. As a beginner I appreciate that everything doesn’t have to be perfect the first nor second time around each lesson, and to reward yourself for small victories and learning some of the skills. You don’t get confined to a few chord nor scale shapes as it’s a more holistic approach to learning guitar with special added theory and specific topics to hone your skills if you want. The five day structure of technique, chords, rhythm, scales, soloing, options, auditory/ visual/ tablature and backing track learning combinations, plus the weekend to practice is a great format even if you can’t seem to find much time every week! Tony is a very accomplished instructor but it’s his enthusiasm, personality, TAC family of love and encouragement that sets him apart.

I originally joined TAC about 4 years ago. I didn't have the patience to really understand how to use the program. After casting around the Internet and some live lessons, I was getting nowhere. I decided to come back to TAC and this time took time to explore the system. I have been following it faithfully for about 16 months now. I love Tony's friendly, reasonable and understanding approach to practice. I am systematically learning techniques that will prove useful in my guitar journey. It's a very good and cost effective investment!
