How many students are lucky enough to be able to undergo training directly from their favorite teachers? If your favorite teacher is a famous guitar professional or an expert guitar trainer, then it becomes all the more difficult to register directly under him or her. Suppose you are lucky enough and get a chance to get trained directly under the teacher of your choice, still, the fee you would be required to pay would skyrocket from your normal guitar course budget. Moreover, different teachers have different strong and weak areas of teaching. Can you ever imagine getting trained from different teachers of your choice and being able to choose teachers based on their area of expertise? Well, this might not have been possible earlier, but now, this kind of a selective training is possible with the help of GuitarTricks.com.
Jon Broderick’s GuitarTricks.com is a miracle video guitar teaching website, which promotes productive learning through sharing of knowledge base. There are about 45 guitar teachers, experts and professionals on the board, who impart training on topics of their choice in addition to sharing some of their best guitar licks, riffs and songs. There is an active community forum and many of the members share the best of their own guitar knowledge regularly with the rest of the members of this community through this website.
You can register to the online guitar course through this website for a monthly subscription fee of just $14.95. But if you are unsure about the course and want to just get a feel of things before you pay and become a member, then you need to simply sign up for free and you instantly get access to 24 video guitar lessons, which are absolutely free!
The lessons are categorized in several different ways. Based on the present level of knowledge and skill of the learner, the course lessons are divided into: absolute beginners, beginners, intermediate, and advanced level learners. So, you can take the lessons suitable specifically for your level, which is really very convenient because very often learners need to shuffle between pages of guitar tutorial material which is either too high or too low for their level. Such categorization saves a lot of time and energy. The lessons are also categorized based on the style of guitar that you want to learn acoustic, country, bluegrass, blues, jazz, folk, etc & wherein, a particular style is taught by an instructor, who is an expert in that specific style. A very unique basis of categorization is also used which is known as - “By Inspiration”
This section allows you to choose music similar to the one played by guitar maestros such as Danny Gatton, David Gilmour, Django Reinhardt, Eddie Van Halen, Carlos Santana, Chet Atkins, Jack Johnson, and many other prominent guitarists. There are about 150 Guitar lessons focusing on music theory which cover topics like Scales, Chords, techniques for improvisation, etc.
One minor drawback with the GuitarTricks.com video guitar lessons website is that since the lessons are contributed from different sources (by different guitar experts) the quality and clarity of these videos varies a lot. Although there is a quality-control mechanism in place that rejects video lessons with poor audio and video quality, there are a few old video lessons, the qualities of which are relatively poor. The latest additions, though, are of good quality and made using the latest technology.
