As a beginner guitar player you have an array of options for how you choose to learn to play the instrument. You can enrol in private lessons, register for online guitar lessons or purchase a DVD guitar course. Each of these choices has it pros and cons.
I believe that for a motivated self starter online lessons are likely the best guitar lessons out there.
Easy Access
Since online guitar lessons are just that, online and available any where you can a net connection they’re extremely accessible. Most membership sites I’ve been a part of provide their lesson content in a low, medium and high bandwidth format. That means that you can adjust the quality and size of the video you watch based on the Internet connection you’re using to view them.
Short Snippets
Generally speaking most online guitar videos are short snippets about a broad topic. This makes it easy for busy individuals to watch a short video clip rather then have to commit to a 30 minute lesson when they may not have the free time at that moment.
These shorter snippets of lesson content make them easy to digest in short periods of time. Only have 15 minutes to check out a lesson today? No problem since most of the lesson videos can be digested in that time frame.
Learn Fast or Slow
Something I always thought held me back from learning more on the guitar was the fact that I was willing to put in far more work then was required for my one guitar lesson a week. I would go to my lesson on Tuesday night and practice for a couple of hours both Wednesday and Thursday night, and by Friday I was ready for something new but I still have four more days to wait until my next lesson.
Online guitar lessons provide you with lots of content right away so if you’re eager to learn quickly you can, if not then you can take your time it’s entirely up to you
So if you’re really eager to learn you can watch two or three lessons a week and practice them each day. Or if you’re strapped for time you can take an entire week off. The whole process is self paced and you’re in complete control of how quickly you learn.
