Learn Guitar Instruction DVD

Hi everyone!

I decided to write this review because frankly I wasn’t finding any good third party reviews for any of the guitar instruction courses available when I was looking. I thought there may be other people in the same boat I was in so here is my review for the guitar instruction DVD’s I used.

It is called Learn and Master Guitar. It is awesome! Plain and simple.

I have been spending a lot of time trying to find a really good system to teach me to play the guitar.  

I decided to get the Learn and Master Guitar instruction DVD set.

This course is made for beginner and intermediate guitar players. It offers more than any other course I looked at for several reasons.

• The instructor, Steve Krenz, is a professional studio and touring guitar player. Not just a guy in his bedroom making videos.
• 20 DVD’s packed with lessons and tutorials. It covers everything for acoustic guitar, electric guitar, blues guitar, jazz guitar, classical guitar, country, funk and more!
• 5 jam along CD’s with 100 music tracks created by professional musicians, not some cheap computer created tracks. This part is AWESOME!!
• Excellent support and a forum to get help from other guitar players!

My first day learning I was able to play a couple of songs. The songs were basic but hey I had to start someplace, right?

 The lessons were easy to follow along with. Multiple cameras are used to see where his fingers are placed AND how he is picking the strings. Nice benefit!

Plus it displays the sheet music and tablature of exactly how it is played. No details were left out!

Since it is on DVD I could easily go back and rewind a piece so I could be sure I got it right.

The only downside that I got from this was that it didn’t have advanced lead guitar stuff.

It really focuses on rhythm guitar and some basic to intermediate lead guitar. Personally, I didn’t think too much of it. I have to learn to play at an intermediate level before I can play advanced anyways. I’ll figure out what to do then when I get that good.

Each guitar lesson has an instruction and then a workshop where you can practice and master what you just learned. 

Progress is easy to see. In just a month I have seen huge improvements in my playing. My confidence in what I can play grows every day.

When you have completed a lesson you can play along with the Jam-Along CD’s. This is a huge benefit!  I really like the CD’s. They are not cheesy either. Great music to play along with.

I think it’s great to be able to play along with professional musicians. It really helps with your timing. Playing along with the CD’s with other musicians was harder than it seemed…at first. My timing is getting better with each day I practice.

They also have a great support system and a forum to ask questions from other guitar players. This was a really nice bonus that I didn’t find on the other courses I checked out.

What really put me over the edge and made me try it was the 60 day money back guarantee. I could play around with it for 2 months no strings attached. I figured I had nothing to lose by trying it.

I’m really glad I did!!

There are two courses available. One has 10 DVD’s and the other has 20. I chose the course with 20 DVD’s. It was only $30 more and it was double the content.

My thought was if I am going to spend some money to learn to play guitar I want to get my money’s worth.

With 20 DVD’s, 5 CD’s, and a support forum, I feel like I got more than my money’s worth.

All in all I’d say it was the best course that I have purchased online. I could not be happier!

My only regret is I wish I would have done this sooner. I really enjoy playing the guitar and actually being able to play it well.

Did you ever see one of those guys who just played so well and when he told you he has only played for a short time, like a few months, you thought he was lying?

It has happened to me on several occasions. But you know what?

You CAN learn guitar fast!!

You really can! I was amazed how easy it was after I found out what to do and then do it right!

I just had to practice with intent. But practice on the guitar is fun, except when your fingers don’t do what you want them to do!  

To learn guitar fast you can start by doing some simple finger exercises to get your fingers used to playing. I got a guitar instruction dvd that taught me a lot!

But before I got the dvd I tried to learn by music books. There is nothing wrong with it… if I knew how to read music.

I don’t know about you but I can’t read music. Sure I can tell what note it is…if you give me a minute to figure it out but I can’t read it to the point that I could use it to play a song. I’d be there for days!

If I was going to learn to play the guitar immediately I was going to need something that will teach me fast.

I first asked myself what it meant to learn guitar fast. I was sure my definition was different than another persons.

For me I wanted to learn a few songs. That’s it! I just wanted to learn to play a few simple songs and then I’d be on my way!

 And you know what?

I did! It was GREAT!!

I was able to learn to play a couple of songs in just a few days. Once I learned the right way to play the chords and how to put them together it was really fast.

I knew I was not going to play lead guitar immediately. I had to learn to walk before I could run but that’s okay. I don’t want to be Eddie Van Halen. I wanted to learn to play and have fun with it too.

And guess what?

I am.

I’m really enjoying my DVD’s and I’m going to tell you all about them and where to get them.

 I made this blog on my quest to find a good program that would teach me how to play the guitar. I thought the best way to learn would be to find a good guitar instruction dvd.

The idea of using guitar instruction books didn’t appeal to me because I wanted to actually see how they did it and hear how it sounded. It had to be a DVD format. Plus I could sit on my couch and learn.

I know there are many of dvd’s available and I know that some have to be good and some are pretty bad.

But, I was on a mission to learn the guitar so here I am.

Since everyone seems to be writing their story on the web I thought I would do the same. I mean, maybe there are other people who want to play and want to know a good way to learn.

I’ll write more on this later as I got a guitar instruction dvd program and it looks pretty good. If you would like to leave a comment or feedback please feel free to do so.

Keep on jammin!
