While LearningGuitarToday.com focuses a lot on online guitar lessons, there are other avenues for self study besides just online videos.
While I haven’t completed it yet I’m going to be doing a Learn and Master guitar review for this site. It’s probably the #1 competitor to all guitar courses online out there. It was the first home study course created by the large company that is Legacy learning systems and launched them into creating a multitude of other courses for drums, piano, blues guitar, painting and more.
If you’re not keen on watching guitar lessons on your computer screen but still like the idea of learning to play on your own I think you’ll enjoy learn and master guitar. It’s about the cost of 6-8 months of online lessons from a site like JamPlay, but you have the course material and content for ever once you buy it once. This way you’ll be able to refresh and review anything you need.
Beyond beginner guitar lessons there is also a blues guitar dvd put out by the same company.
Learn and Master blues guitar spotlight course is a great intro to the blues guitar genre and will get you up to speed with not only the basics but some advanced skills like scales, soloing and varying techniques and styles of the 12 bar blues progression. This course is a lot of fun for anyone interested in the blues and has the basics of the acoustic or electric guitar under their fingers. I’d urge you to check it out.
