Smoke on the Water… which one is right?!… ). I turned the phone the wrong way… haha, it looks like I’m playing left handed)

What's the moment you realized you weren't as far along on guitar as you wanted to be? Not looking for a long answer. Just curious what that moment looked like for you — was it a specific situation, a song you couldn't play, something someone said? I'll go first: for me it's always been time — even now, with kids and weekend responsibilities, practice is the first thing that gets pushed aside unless there's a gig or worship set forcing it. I've felt that gap between wanting to play and actually playing for a long time. Drop yours below 👇

I'm planning my next batch of content and I want to make sure it's exactly what YOU need right now. What would help you most? A) How to use the CAGED system across the whole neck B) Song tutorials that teach real concepts (not just one song) C) Music theory explained through songs you actually love D) How to build a practice routine that actually works Drop your answer in the comments — A, B, C, D, or E. 👇 I read every response personally and this directly shapes what I create next.

Quick question for the guitarists in here — and I genuinely want your input on this 🎸 I’ve been planning on creating more free content on YouTube lately — specifically around the CAGED system, pentatonic scales, and how they connect to real music you actually want to play. Before I go deeper into what I build next, I want to know what would actually help YOU the most right now. Here’s what I’m considering: A) More free YouTube videos — deeper dives into CAGED, pentatonic scales, and how to apply them to real songs across rock, blues, and jazz. B) A free visual Fretboard Map — a printable guide showing how the 5 CAGED positions connect across your entire neck. C) A free lesson built around a song you already know — where I walk through CAGED in a real musical context (think Hendrix, classic rock, blues). D) Something else entirely — tell me what you actually need right now. And one more thing — depending on the response here, I’ve also been thinking about putting together some kind of 5 Day CAGED method challenge around this. Nothing set in stone yet, but if that’s something you’d want to be part of, let me know in the comments too. If there’s enough interest, I want to move on this quickly.
