Rhythm Course Enrollment Begins Tomorrow!
Added 2021-09-16 01:51:26 +0000 UTCHey everyone! I was hoping to get you into my course today but I dumped most of the work on my webguy yesterday and there's still some work we both need to do before it's all tidy and easy to access.
Tomorrow evening I will post a link to the new Rhythm Training Course for Guitar. You will need an account on my site, so I recommend you sign up ahead of time at https://www.signalsmusicstudio.com. If you have signed up for my theory course, then you already have an account and don't need to make a new one. Make sure you remember your login + password! We've been having some intermittent issues with the password-retrieval system as of late.

This project has grown far bigger than I expected it to. For those of you who have been here for a while, you may remember I actually began this project in January, before giving up due to the size, scope, and complexity of the task. I really appreciate your patience and support thus far- Just a little bit longer and it should all pay off :) See you tomorrow!
