Author: So here we are, we just finished our three part virtual guitar lessons Jamorama review for you guys, and we’ve gotten some very nice feedback on it, so we figured you guys would be pretty excited for this post. It’s going to be rough. It’s going to be fun. It’s going to be slightly crazy. And we know you’re going to love it.
Advanced guitar lessons. What sets advanced guitar lessons apart from easy guitar lessons? Simple.
Advanced guitar lessons are the basics, but done in a way that gives you an idea on how to make your own music and how to do it more technically, faster, better, etc. While easy guitar lessons take the basics and give you a firm foundation for learning them so that have a good foundation for more advanced techniques.
But don’t take that to mean that you don’t need the beginner guitar instructions to get to the advanced guitar lessons. If you want a strong house, you need a good foundation.
So, what’s a good foundation for your advanced guitar lessons?
Scales. Chords. Intervals. Slow, precise, dedicated practice. That’s all there really is to getting good.
If you really want to step your game up, do the 21 day challenge.
The 21 day challenge is basically where you practice as slow as possible every day for 21 days, as long as you practice precisely and correctly. I’ve seen people go from intermediate to extremely skilled from this alone, and yes, I’m *very* serious. Just take 1 song that you like and practice your guitar instructions as slow as you can go with your metronome for 30 minutes a day. Do that for 21 days and come back and just try to tell me it didn’t help.
Advanced guitar lessons, honestly, are not as far out of your range as you’d like to think they are. In fact, they’re right where you’re at, and they’re not hard to get. Guitar Instructions HQ signing out.

Alright peeps, so this post goes back to what most of you might consider “old school.” We’re gonna take it back a bit and delve into classical guitar instruction. That’s right. We’ve been getting a lot of requests lately, so we figured it was time to review a book on the subject of classical guitar instruction, so without further explanation, I give you 50 classical guitar pieces.
So, what makes 50 classical guitar pieces special? It has, as the name suggests, 50 seperate pieces of classical guitar instruction for you, ranging from the Renaissance, the Baroque, Classical and Romantic eras, and a few others. This book teaches in both tab and in music notation for those who know how to read it.
Put simply, it’s a jam packed classical guitar instruction package that will keep you very satisfied with your classical guitar instruction needs. Everything you need will be in here in an orderly and easy to read fashion.
What’s unique about this book, is that it’s finger picking methods are quite possibly the best finger picking instructions that you can find for the guitar in a book form to date.

We all know and love who the Beatles are, so today, we’re dedicating a very special post to The Beatles Complete Chord Songbook. Several people want to know about guitar chords instructions, and what better way than with some of the Beatles Songs’ chords?
So, what all does this fabulous book have to offer? It comes with the chords to EVERY song by the Beatles, and comes with not only the chords to all 194 Beatles songs, but also the lyrics of them. This is very amazing, and key to actually learning a song. When we want to learn a song, we also want to learn the LYRICS to the songs. Finally a publisher realizes this.
Also coming with this book are the strumming patterns from the actual recordings of The Beatles, in the original keys. Each song comes with the chord symbols, all the guitar chord boxes, and even complete lyrics. A fun and helpful playing guide and full discography of The Beatles songs also come with this book. Very nice!
If you’re used to getting The Beatles chords from the internet, save yourself a lot of time, effort, and printing and get the book. The guitar chords instruction alone is well worth it, especially in such an organized manner. All that could be added to make this book freaking perfect, would be the signature licks or intros from The Beatles, or the signature intros. Often, however, you can work them out from the intro chords given.

Music theory is something that several musicians tend to neglect in their study. It continues to baffle me as to why! I can relate in the fact that music theory can be a real brain buster, but today, we’ve got you a few products that teach music theory in a way that makes music theory made easy for you to understand. Many books on music theory make that claim, but being as I personally learned music theory from this book, I can attest it’s not lying when it says that it is music theory made easy, as it truly is.
So, what book am I talking about? I’m talking about Alfred’s music theory complete - music theory made easy.
A few interesting things to note about this book, is that it’s really three books in one! It has three comprehensive sections to it which build upon the last, ensuring that you will know all there is to know about music theory by the time you’re done. Each section is around 40 pages(some are a bit more), and has an accompanying CD to go along with it. At the end of each chapter, there are tests that you are to complete before you go ahead to the next chapter(to make sure that you understand everything that is being taught in the course).
So, what range of topics can you expect from alfred’s music theory complete that makes music theory made easy?
This book claims to be a complete self-study course for all musicians, and in my opinion, it does not fail to do that.
In the first section, it has 6 units which are broken into different chapters all on their own. Ranging from learning the staff, how to read and write musical notation(Unit 1), to reading the different time signatures and ties and slurs(unit 3) ending with flats, sharps, naturals, and Enharmonic notes.
Unit 2 goes into tetrachords and major scales, and ends with triads, scale degree names, and the dominant 7th chord. In between there, you’ll find information on scales, intervals, 16th notes, 16th rests, and even more time signatures.
The final unit, unit 3, begins with Triad Inversions, Figured Bass, Major Chord Progressions, delves into harmonizing a melody in a major key, broken chords and arpeggiated accompaniments, composing a melody in a major key, and ends with give you all you need to write music, and the different types of writing music.
Each chapter also has ear training to go with it, as well. The book goes well into the theory of music much deeper than that, but if I were to write it all out, this would be more than just a review!
So if you want music theory made easy, and you want the real deal, go ahead and check out the link below. Have a good day!
Today’s Guitar instructions are for those who are looking for something a bit… more. These are advanced guitar lessons that will take you from being ‘good at guitar’ to ‘great at guitar.’
This product will take you from being able to play your favorite songs and even coming up with a few of your own, to making all your friends jealous at how good you’ve gotten at guitar.
It’s a guitar learning software called eMedia Guitar Master, and it’s got to be the best thing since sliced bread. It comes with a chord dictionary, a digital recorder, a digital metronome and an automatic tuner. Each of these seperately cost around the same price(often more, actually!) than how much this software is being offered for. In my opinion, it’s like stealing.
So, what else comes with this software that will take you from good to great and qualifies it to be called advanced guitar lessons?
It comes with over 100 lessons, and over a hundred songs you can learn ranging from every style of music you can think of. You ever want to play guitar hero songs? You’re in luck, they’re all covered here. It won’t be long till you’re rocking the heck out after you get this thing. It teaches movable power chords, barre chords, using effects pedals to their maximum(comes with sound effects for you to see how things change after you record your guitar with the FREE digital recorder), yanks, hammer-ons, pull-offs, palm muting, distorted riffs, blues scales, using feedback, using the whammy bar(this is actually the first course I’ve found that actually teaches how to use the whammy bar), and tons of other things.
Personally, I think they could sell this set of advanced guitar lessons for at least three times the price that they’re offering it here at amazon.
It’s almost Christmas time, and I picked up a few sets for my friends and family as gifts. If you’re interested in eMedia Guitar Master: Software’s advanced guitar lessons for yourself or for a friend/family member, check it out at the following link:
