I am 66 years old and haven't even picked up a guitar in 45 or so years. Your simple lessons are a real blessing for this old man. I have MS and that's why I gave up playing. I guess I got the urge to pick it back up lately not really realizing how lost I was. Your simple approach fits my abilities both physically as well as mentally. I want to thank you for my second chance to dust off some strings again....Roy Booth, Rainelle WV

Hi from Ontario Canada. For my birthday this year (63), I decided to pick up guitar again…I used to play in school. Luckily, my son plays very well and lent me one of his acoustic. I offered myself a year of Simply Guitar and am in my 12th consecutive week of playing. Then I discovered you! Wow! I promise to join your program once I’m done with my year and subscription. Not criticizing Simply as it got me back into it but I’m also following you and your website. Thank you for all you provide. 🥰

Hi Lauren, 39 here, and just getting going. I played for a month, during covid and then became frustrated with the guitar, sold it and said I am never going back. I am not made to play. And then a month ago, all the way up till now, I had this ITCH to learn how and to stick this thing out. I am turning 40 in December. Kind of a late start. I hope I can play someday and be good. I must say, I love the shirt and how you did the sleeves on it. I tried that look out too, and it adds a little flavor to the playing, I think. It makes it more appealing to people looking.

Hi from bonnie Scotland. Love your lessons 65 and been trying to play the guitar for approximately 2 years on and off. I can make the chords individually but failing to get to the stage where i can change between chords and actually keep up with a song . I know practice practice practice Well for the past 4 months have been playing for al least an hour a day going between my chords and simple riffs i know to keep me going but not really getting any faster is it a brain thing or my hands or as I'm guessing bad habits where i started moving 1 finger at a time and now they won't move as one. any one out there with advise I'm all ears. Keep up the very good work Lauren your videos are an absolute dream to follow . My goal now is to play along with you and keep up.
