These days four-hundred thousand guitarists take advantage of Guitar Tricks' lessons each month. And no wonder, because there are lessons in any genre you could name - acoustic, rock, metal, country, classical, jazz . . . and you can take lessons in special areas like chords, sound effects, harmonics, bottleneck, popping and guitar tricks. If you are not clear on whether your favorite guitar style has a name, you can simply request lessons based on the music of particular guitar players like Chet Atkins, Duane Allman, Stanley Jordan, Andres Segovia or Jimmy Page.
Your membership of Guitar Tricks gets you full access to a buttload of tutorials, sheet music, video lessons and backing tracks. Not only do you get the benefit of the Guitar Tricks guys' years of archiving guitar lessons but their content is updated every day.
One resource for beginner guitar players I'm always recommending is the collective expertise that you can find in guitar forums. Guitar Tricks has a forum that holds the records of questions and answers between thousands of guitarists. Would you believe there's over two-hundred thousand posts? And not only that, you can also have feedback from the Guitar Tricks teachers on any nagging question your brain can formulate.

Guitars and guitar-related playthings
zZounds Guitars,
Amps and EffectsI have thought about puttings ads for guitars and equipment from Amazon or ebay on the site but getting goods through outlets like those is probably left to people who feel comfortable with the interfaces on those sites. The alternative is to link to one of the big online musical instrument outlets. So, after some consideration, I chose zZounds simply because after looking around the guitar forums, I found past customers seem to be quite happy with the quality of the goods and the customer service.
The Blowouts Section
The zZounds blowout section is a great resource for guitar players looking for a bargain in guitars, effects and accessories. This is the section where zZounds shows their blowout, refurbished, open box, and blemished items. Most of these deals are only available through zZounds, and can be hundreds of dollars below the price the other guitar retailers.
