Guitar Lesson Overview

This pentatonic guitar lick in the key of E uses a "sweep" motion to make it sound really quick. Practice it slowly over and over until you can play it cleanly. Have patience, it takes a while to get the strength and technique up for doing this kind of stuff, but you can do it. Just be patient and work on 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.

Hi Robert.

Thanks for the website, lessons, and all. I've wanted to learn blues scales for a long time, especially after seeing my brother who is able to play blues scales very well after following your lessons, so here I am trying to pick up some good lessons and tips from you. However, i need your help with pointing out on which video lesson should I start off with, blues. I'm an intermediate to advance self-learned guitarist but would like to learn blues which I believe any guitarist should be able to play very fluently. Thanks!

Thanks for all the free lessons, I can't imagine the time and effort that must go into this site. Do you ever post tabs?
