Excellent question! There are several things that this program offers that you generally won’t find with free content:
Instead of focusing on learning how to emulate a certain style of music, learning solo techniques, or learning how to play songs, Dave’s lesson program focuses on teaching you the real-world skills you will need to make you a MARKETABLE guitar player. With these skills, you will then be able to master any style of music, create solos with your own personal sound, and create songs and guitar parts yourself.
Each weekly lesson includes a downloadable pdf file with all of the important information you’ll need for the lesson. The material is notated in traditional music notation as well as guitar tablature, so if you don’t yet read music, this will make the transition easier.
At the end of each lesson, Dave will teach you a cool guitar lick based on concepts learned in that lesson. Then he’ll give you a backing track where you can use the lick to jam out with him and the band. You’ll also get an extended jam video were you can jam out till your fingers bleed!
Opt for the Premium Membership and you can interact directly with Dave. You can ask specific questions, or even send videos of yourself so Dave can give you direct coaching and instruction.
Check out a free lesson complete with the downloadable pdf, Lick & Jam, and Extended Jam Track.
