Best of luck with the lessons. It can be a good thing starting from a position that you think is bad, as the room for improvement is then much bigger. Glass half full that is .... not like me at all. Mark

Good idea, looking forward to seeing how they help.
J-F Delcamp is the real deal, taught by Alexandre Lagoya. His forum is a platform for him to selflessly share his knowledge, transcriptions and arrangements - it is an incredible resource. The forum and some attitudes though, as you may have spotted, occasionally reflect an archaic world of the classical guitar.

Good luck Larry! (And if you find the online course format works for you, consider also the ClassicalGuitarCorner Academy (Though you do have to pay for it - it's not exorbitant). That site has a great community Best Julie

Update. After 5 days of playing I've improved and can even play along with a metronome-something I'd not been able to do before. Not long after this the stool gave way and I ended up on the deck!

... ooh, hope no damage to your person was sustained, Larry. I'm sure there must be some videos on Youtube about how to cope with collapsing stools!
