This article is going to give you some 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 lesson videos to get an idea of what they have to offer. The courses I have picked for this list 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.
The first Speed Kills DVD begins with Michael Angelo Batio playing a lightening fast but interesting electric guitar solo. After just a few minutes of watching I started to laugh out loud. You know, the kind of involuntary, puzzled laugh that bursts forth when a magician does something truly unexpected and unbelievable.
I have never seen a guitar played that fast. It almost looked fake. Perhaps what is more amazing, however, is that Michael can actually teach these seemingly impossible techniques to us mere mortal guitarists.
