200 - The BIG 200!! + Surprise Merch Announcement...

Beginner Guitar Academy

Today we are celebrating a special milestone—our 200th episode and our very first video podcast. Whether you're a longtime listener or just tuning in, we're thrilled to have you join us on this incredible journey.

In this episode, we'll reflect on the transformative power of looking back at past struggles to measure your progress, and we'll dive into the vibrant and supportive community we've built together.

With plans for future online meetups, new features like scrolling tab play-through videos, and innovative content updates, there's so much to be excited about.

We'll also delve into essential learning strategies, answering common questions about how long to stay in a guitar class before moving on, balancing song learning without becoming a "riff junkie," and achieving different levels of song mastery.

Plus, hear personal anecdotes from my own guitar journey, including my early inspirations and the lessons learned from my teachers.

We'll address listener questions about progressing beyond the Beginner Guitar Academy's 5-level system and share updates on merchandise, including our new guitar-themed T-shirts available at guitarshirts.shop with a special discount!
