Hi Tomo,

Great lessons! could be great if there was sort of list of topics to cover by order, for me it was helpful in to proceed step-by-step in the correct order. Something like:
1. Notes across the fret board
2. Triads in all 3 inversions. Triads horizontally, Triads vertically, and triads again and again and again...:)
3. 3/4 notes Arpeggios
4. Major scale in a specific fingering
5. ...

Thanks
Eldad

Here is Tomo's reply:

"Thanks so much! I am working on a new video with 'practice routine' ideas. Meanwhile, see Lesson 12 on three things to practice every day. In the 'Foundation & Core Music' section of Guitar Wisdom, there are lesson videos on learning the notes on the fretboard, triads and arpeggios.

"Which lessons have you done so far? Which lessons were the most helpful for you?"

Hi Tomo,

So far watched lessons 1-10 (I am kind of intermediate player),I like the fact that its very practical and very focused towards whats really needed. one thing I am missing though is TABs, it will help me link the chord progression to the notes played.
If you think its helpful I can create such 'what to practice' check list for the benefit of all users

Here's one way to bypass the need for tabs: when you play the notes on your guitar, also SING them! This will train your ear, and will definitely help to create a strong link to the underlying harmony. This will also get you to play those notes all over the fretboard. The danger of tabs is that they tend to lock people to certain places only.
