Guitar Lesson Overview

Shows how I play this great SRV song, Cold Shot. To make it sound like the original, a rotating speaker simulation or leslie effect is needed - I didn't use that on this song for clarity. It should also be played on a Stratocaster, but I had to use a Tele in this case.

One of these days, I'll try to make a lesson on how to play the solo too, as Stevie Ray did it.

Guitar Theory Made Simple!

Understanding I-IV-V is an intensive 65 minute video that will give you a crash course on guitar theory. It is not a complete lesson on music theory. Instead, this is the perfect introductory tool to get you started on the guitar, or to reveal the secrets of the fretboard that you are not aware of yet. You will learn why chord numbers are far more important than chord letters, how to write your own songs and chord progressions effortlessly and endlessly, and much more.

Guitar Pro

I use Guitar Pro for most of my video lessons. It is a great product that will not only show you the notes in both TAB and standard notation, you will also HEAR them being played at the same you see them. Very helpful for learning! Click the link below to try the free demo.

Order Guitar Pro 6, and also get our guitar-playing method for free.

Video Clips

I have lots of gear demos too on this site. Go and take a look at some of my Guitar Videos for some examples of gear I use or have used.

dang! Wish there'd been a bit more explanation of how to play it, but I guess you gotta save something for the DVD. You sound great!
