In this interview, Steve Stine from GuitarZoom Academy sits down with Chris Macry, a dedicated student whose journey proves that it’s never too late to grow as a guitar player.
Chris started playing guitar as a teenager, but life took over—raising kids, working multiple jobs, and putting music on hold for years. After nearly two decades away from serious playing, he decided to come back and finally pursue the progress he always wanted.
In this conversation, Chris shares:
How he restarted guitar later in life
The struggles and self-doubt he faced
Why he almost quit early on
What helped him push through and improve
How structure, community, and consistency changed everything
The mindset shift that built real confidence
This isn’t just about guitar—it’s about discipline, motivation, and proving to yourself that you can still grow, no matter your age or background.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or like it might be “too late”… this story will hit home.
