GUITAR LESSONS

Is it finally time to hang up your air guitar and strap on a real one? If so, there are a number of instructional programs available to help you start making music. Whether you are interested in playing blues, country, flamenco, rock, classical, or jazz, guitars are the primary instruments in many musical forms.

For the more seasoned guitar player, there are a variety of services available to help you hone your craft. While many programs cater to novices, there are systems that offer a number of instructional levels to enable you to advance your musical career.

For players of all skill levels, it is important to consider the type of instruction provided. Some programs offer a number of training methods such as instructional books, DVD's, online tutorials, charts, and so on. On the other hand, some programs only use one method of instruction, which might not match your personal learning style. Therefore, it is very important to find a service that employs an instructional method that fits both your learning needs and skill set.

When looking for guitar lessons, there are certain factors you need to consider. Some of these include:

•  Skill Level. Are the instructional materials geared toward novices or do they also provide instruction for more advanced players?

•  Instructional Methods. Does the system employ a teaching method that supports your personal learning style?

•  Value. Does the product provide superior value for its price?

TopConsumerReviews.com has reviewed and ranked the best guitar lessons available today. We hope you find these reviews helpful whether you are picking up a guitar for the first time or looking to build on your current skill set.

Team Method Guitar

4.5 Stars

TEAM METHOD GUITAR

Team Method Guitar teaches its students using instruction from a team of acoustic, electric, and lead guitar experts. This is a strong choice, and guitar players of all skills can expand their techniques and skills with this program.

Jamorama

3 Stars

JAMORAMA

Jamorama is an easy-to-follow system that is available either by instant download or through books and DVD's. The product is geared to help novice guitar players build their skills from scratch and then expand upon these skills. However, the training methods used in the Jamorama system are not explained in as much detail as we would like. If you want a better sense of what you are purchasing before you buy a product, you might use one of the higher-rated services. More...

Guitar Hot Shot

3 Stars

GUITAR HOT SHOT

To use Guitar Hot Shot's services, you must purchase an online membership. This membership gives you access to over 40 hours of online video lessons designed to teach you a wide range of guitar-playing techniques. However, there is little depth to each of the lessons. Additionally, some individuals might not be as receptive to online video instruction and require supplemental instructional materials. For these individuals, we suggest using one of our higher-rated services. More...

Music Master Pro

1 Star

MUSIC MASTER PRO

Music Master Pro is an online program that teaches you to play the guitar, bass guitar, and drums. The website claims that you will not only be able to learn to play anything on these instruments in 30 days, but you will also become a virtuoso and get signed by a record label. Dubious claims such as these do not inspire our trust in a product. Therefore, we suggest spending the money you would pay for a Music Master Pro membership on a more reliable training method.
