Hi dave great to hear your still into your guitar. I think if you stick to the basics each lessons completed is another piece added to the jigsaw and you only see the progress when you log your achievements and remind yourself what your playing was like after your first couple of months to what you play like in the present when you do this it will encourage you. Have you followed any pathways on GT like blues rock or country ill be working on the blues soon once i get rid of a minor wrist injury should be ok in a couple of weeks too much practice isn't always good haa.
I’ve done both of Lisa’s fundamentals and went through again when Anders did a new version. Followed the acoustic progress. Looked at country and blues. I did look at the Rock lessons but was put off by having to rejig the style of chords to be used. I’ve learned some of the CAGED patterns for the major scales , minor pentatonic and the blues scales. Started local lessons as I felt I was getting bogged down in the technical parts but still couldn’t play a song. Watched most of Mike Olekshy workshops on YouTube channel, picking up bits and pieces as we went through. Have followed a few of his easier song lessons. House of the Rising Sun. Ed Sheeran’s Perfect was a good one to follow on acoustic. Most of the usual easy beginner recommendations. Everything is gradually improving but I would still class myself as beginner, maybe just in to Intermediate. Main thing is that I finally started in my sixties during Covid and have stayed with it. Always eyed the guitar magazines in the supermarkets but chased the urge away as a probable fad. Like many things, what if I had started earlier. Never mind, having my fun now. Good Parlour, now a good OM, classical and Epiphone Les Paul through a Fender LT25 modelling amp. Full on Got the gear, No idea. All fun and getting better bit by bit and understanding so much more
