Hi!
I've just found out about your lessons, because of couchsurfing ;).
Is it possible to start now? I am interested in the 30/weekly-"package".
I "own" an e-guitar, and would like to learn both Melody playing and Song-Accompaniment. Until now I have managed to learn some chords and mini-intros from
you-tube tutorials.. but I dont think I'll get far without proper lessons.
Have a great weekend!
