It's going to take a long time to get to that one but so far Toby's lessons have done me a lot of good and kept me, my wife and the two cats entertained. I started on the ''Look ma, I'm Fingerpicking package in July. I only have ''Begging Back Blues'' to learn on that one and I've been working on the beginning of the ''Blues Foundation'' lessons, so it's going to take a while to get to the new lessons.
It's not just learning the songs. The lessons are giving me the tools to hear what's going on when I listen to other songs. They have loosened up my fingers and they are giving me confidence to try other things that I want to be able to play.
Thank you, Toby, your lessons are have not only been helpful, they are a lot of fun to play!

Thank YOU Lowrider! I'm really happy to hear that you're getting so much out of these lessons.
I honestly try to teach more than 'just the song.' It's my goal to make better guitar players out of everyone, which in my book means showing the various ways one can be creative with the tunes, as well as learning the ins and outs of the guitar itself.
