In case you missed the feedback Friday where I touched on this, there are big changes happening effective immediately. I'll give you the changes then the reasons why I'm making them. - Luan's School of Music will become free again - Feedback Friday will be available for free for all members with priority to higher level members - Feedback Friday will be once per month - No more private lessons can be won through leaderboards - Brand new musician course giving you the tools from being a noob to professional level skill will be released in the coming months. For starters I love sharing advice and feedback so Feedback Friday has been an amazing outlet for me and well received by the community. I find most members are posting once a month and consolidating everything into one day for me is better for my time. I'm launching a private coaching community which will give people 1 on 1 access. I'll be delivering a massive amount of value to paying students which will also allow me to do content full time. What's coming in the paid coaching community: - It will be a yearly commitment paid up front. - When you sign up you will get a 90 min 1 on 1 call to map your goals and discuss your practice strategy. (All lessons are recorded and delivered privately to you) - Every 3 months we will host a virtual concert followed by 1 on 1 check in calls (60min) to refine your practice strategy. - Weekly Group calls similar to feedback friday, you will submit videos but we will all be in a private call through zoom so you can respond in real time with each other. Times for these calls will most likely start between 7-8am AEST Sunday's (To make it easy for all timezones). - All group calls will be recorded and privately shared in our community in the classroom tab. - You will have access to dm me whenever you like with questions or post in community and I'll respond within 24 hours weekdays and 48 hours weekends. In full transparency I will be pricing this community in the future at $4449 USD/Year this a reflection of how much it would cost to get an hour of my time per week at less than half of my performance rate/hr (Which continues to increase). This is my personal goal to achieve by end of next year and I believe we deliver that level of value to students. When we launch it in Jan/Feb it will be $2999 USD, once affiliate links are available members in the paid community will receive 25% of the yearly subscription for anyone who signs up through their link. To start I will cap the community at 50 members with 100 members being the ultimate goal to cap at in the end.

I'm curious to know what everyone’s rig looks like. What guitar(s), amp and/or pedals are you using? I’ve always found it fun to dial in my sound over the years. Keen to hear what you’ve all got :)

So... I just realized that I can play barre chords just fine, but for some reason Bm is just not working for me. Yet I have heard that Bm should be one of the easier ones to learn. Also... I find 6/8 time so much easier to play than 4/4. Not sure if that is a common thing or if I am just more of 6/8th type of guy. What are some things that turned out to be easier / different from the norm for you when you learned to play the guitar?

Just a quick update, we're officially launching the paid community this week and I've removed members who joined but never posted/inactive to keep numbers down and clean. Students that will be entering our community will now be paid members at $199/month. We'll be introducing affiliate links as soon as the feature is available. When you refer a student with your code you will collect 30% of their monthly fee and will be able to make money from this community. Thank you all for the hard work you've put in to make this a product I'm super proud of and we'll continue to move forward with some fun new things coming soon ;)

Hope everyone’s hooking into practice this week! Late post for weekly goals but sharing them anyway. - learn 10 country songs 2/10 so far - Set up prompter for content - Mix band (crushed this yesterday)
