As a beginner I find Guitar Tricks a… As a beginner I find Guitar Tricks a good learning resource. I started on the beginner level course, even though I had already completed the Fender Play course. Even though I would rate the Fender course, it was more of an introduction to the Guitar, whilst Guitar Tricks course focused improving. The instructors are solid guitarist who give helpful tips and advice. An important lesson I am learning is to be patient and not to rush into more advance guitar until I polish up on the basics. In all, I am really enjoying learning with Guitar Tricks, but taking a pre-course before signing up has really benefited my progression.

I have started and stopped playing… I have started and stopped playing guitar many times. Started as a teenager, and tried to learn from books. I learned basic chords, and a few songs, but would get bored and dissatisfied and quit. Now at 49, I am determined to finally play guitar well enough to enjoy playing for myself and with other musicians. I started guitar tricks one week ago, and it is the best money I have spent learning guitar. I started with the fundamentals 1 course and can’t believe how fast my skills have increased in such a short time. The course exercises build upon one another in such an organised and well thought out manner. I wish I had access to this 30 years ago. I enrolled in a music theory class at university, and was so overwhelmed, I had to drop out after 3 days. In one week, I have already memorised the notes on the fret board. It has been so fun and enjoyable, that my intention to just practice for 10-30 minutes has turned into 2-3 hours per day, because I lose track of time, and get so excited to see what is next in the course exercises.

Path to success This looks like i may finally have a path to success. I purchased their biggest competitor, and even though they are very good, I needed more structure, Guitar Tricks offers that. I was hoping they would offer a Jazz component, but Blue is the main area of interest. I started from introduction 1 and because I do have some experience some of the videos were not needed and others were a review, It was worth it to give me a feel on how to best use the lessons. I have now started down the blues path and enjoying it. I would have like it if the instructor kept the distortion off his guitar so I can compare clean sounds but I'll get over it. I'm a 65 yr old student, so you can do it.. Go for it!

So far I've had a very positive… So far I've had a very positive experience with this lesson plan. I'm only on chapter 3 of the guitar fundamentals 1. But so far everything is broken down to manageable size lessons that by the end. all the small lessons come together to a complete thought. The customer service has been great also. And there is so much information I haven't even discovered it all yet. Imo if your thinking about getting it. Just go for the whole year membership and take your time with it. Definitely worth it.

Simple step by step instructions Simple step by step instructions , the teaching method is outstanding. Even though one may not be familiar withe musical notes but the method of teaching makes it very easy for you to remember the notes.
