Here is my review in the chronology of my experience (more than 200 daily challenges): Advertising - the 45-minute introduction This video very accurately describes Tony's philosophy and what you will get with the membership to TAC (I almost called it "lessons", but it is really more than that). Most advertising videos tend to "puff their wares" so I was somewhat leery of the difference between the advertising and the daily challenges. In this case, the advertising very accurately describes the content. Daily Challenges The daily challenges have all been thought out well. Much work is done behind the scenes to make each challenge and fit it into a week of challenges. I continue to be impressed every week. Each challenge is presented well and carefully allowing the TAC member to absorb as much as they can. The production is clean and the details are visible so you can really get a lot out of each. Each challenge has encouragement and an explanation of how it fits into the overall picture. Thankfully, most of this is put at the end of the challenge so if you are already encouraged and see the fit you can move on to working on the challenge. Tony's philosophy Tony's philosophy is refreshing. What I mean by this is that statements like "there is no cheating in music" means to find a way to make music happen and there is no rigid requirement. Also with improvisation (Wednesday) "find some sounds you really like" lets you feel appropriately that the music you make and enjoy is the goal, not reproducing what someone else has done before. By the way, I thought initially that I would skip Wednesdays since I didn't think I could improvise, but Wednesdays are definitely my favorite, and I can improvise even if it is with 2 notes and my favorite audience (me) likes what I play. Tony occasionally makes mistakes too It is so refreshing to see someone so accomplished making a mistake, particularly because we all do. Economics This is a great deal. I don't like to say that out loud because I don't want the price to go up. I remember explaining the cost to my wife not knowing if it would work out. It did. It is a great deal, and that is coming from a frugal person. So in the end I have to give TAC 5 stars, not 4.9 rounded up to 5, but 5 full stars based on a well-formed opinion.

I’ve been trying to learn guitar forever and have run in circles trying to get the right instruction in a structured way. Tony is talented and yet he doesn’t make the course a lesson on his cool playing, just a good reassurance that learning guitar is a fun process that over time will get me playing the way I want. Every day it’s becoming less practice and more fun. I’m very pleased so far and look forward to my daily guitar 🎸 playing

I have accomplished more in 54 days than I did with private lessons. Tony’s step by step approach is great and by the end of a week of doing a challenge I am able to meet my goals. Each lesson is fun and builds on what I learned previous weeks.

I played years ago with no instruction, just got guitar books with chords and lyrics because I wanted to sing and play my favorite songs. I did not stick to it. Now I can see the great value in consistently showing up for a lesson. Not only making the habit of showing up, but daring to try things that would not have even occurred to me to try, or been presented to me to try at an early stage. I firmly believe in your method. I am not getting things perfect every time, but move on, as suggested, then go back to review earlier lessons. For example, today I am on Wednesday of the 5 day guitar routine, but I am also reviewing the F chord 10 mintes a day. still not perfect. But before, when I was on my one, if a song I wanted to play had a barre chord in it, I just skipped it. I look forward to this everyday. Play on, Guitar Geeks! Thank you, Tony.
