Guitar Tricks - The Learning Guitar Player's Resource

As a guitar player you have probably trawled the internet looking for guitar lessons. Whether or not you want to learn to play guitar for free, your vision probably involved learning songs form tabs as well as getting as much theory and technique exercises you can handle.
Ten years ago a guy named Jon Broderick went looking for websites featuring high quality guitar lessons and, the legend goes, he had so little success, he went and made his own. The outcome was Guitar Tricks, another site that gives you access to their lessons in return for a monthly subscription. Not unlike Jamplay, but Guitar Tricks has been collecting guitar lessons for ten years, plus they have a collection of twenty-four free guitar lessons that you can try. Your free lessons are of the same quality as the lessons you get with your monthly subscription, taught by the same teachers who conduct the lessons for subscribers to Guitar Tricks.
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.
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.

This article is going to give you some guitar lesson reviews of a few of the guitar courses that you can buy over the internet plus some info on how you can get access to free beginner guitar lessons videos to get an idea of what they have to offer. The courses I have picked for the lesson reviews are Amazing Guitar Secrets, Jamplay, Next Level Guitar and Guitar Tricks. The reason I have chosen these courses is that they each make heavy use of video as a guitar teaching method plus they make a point of giving away videos as samples of their guitar lesson courses.

The beginner guitar lesson course that has been around the longest is Guitar Tricks which was started in 1998. Since then thousands of lessons have been posted on their site from over forty guitar teachers. You get access to all these video guitar lessons by registering with them and paying a monthly fee. Guitar Tricks will give you twenty-four free lessons just for registering with their site.

Another course of beginner guitar lessons that features free videos is Amazing Guitar Secrets. This course was created by a seasoned guitar teacher named Dan Denley who also presents all the guitar video lessons. The course not only features videos but audio tracks plus ten books. You can view the material on the web or by having it all delivered to your door. Dan Denley runs a blog which features sample videos or video guitar lessons specially made to present his course plus you can read comments by readers of the blog. Just do a Google blog search for Dan Denley.

Jamplay is another beginner guitar lesson course that you can access by paying a monthly fee. The videos are presented in an informal, friendly way but at the same time are packed with solid information. The guitar teachers are specialists in every genre you can name, even Hawaiian slack key and classical guitar. The best thing about Jamplay and Guitar Tricks is that the lessons are being updated all the time so you are not stuck with one bunch of teaching material forever. Jamplay have a range of free lessons on their website plus full details of how they teach guitar and who their teachers are.

Now for Next Level Guitar. If you have not seen examples of the other video guitar lesson courses on YouTube, you have probably noticed the ones from Next Level Guitar. Many of them are presented by an amiable dude in a backwards baseball cap who lives and breathes guitar. They have well over three hundred lessons on their website divided up into genres and skill levels. They also have a forum which will give you an avenue for getting answers to any questions you might have. As for free video lessons for beginners, there are aver forty of them for you to check out so even if you do not join, you will get some valuable material for your next guitar practice session.
