Hope this helps.

This was great, thanks for taking the time to respond to me. I'll check out some of those links. Right now I think I have a good handle on my path forward. I'm still using standard tuning but at this point in my learning curve that's not a hindrance. I do need to learn the fundamentals, become more accurate with my fingers on both hands. I'm picking the guitar up 3 or 4 times a day and doing about 15-20 mins each session. Starting with spider drills, some chord changes and for the fun part once warmed up, learning some 12 bar blue riffs. I see slow, incremental improvements and I'm good with that. This is a long term project and I'm having fun.
