I thought it would be helpful to make a guitar resource section of my site.
Below is some of the best information I have found over the years!
Online Guitar Teachers:
Marty Schwartz
- In my opinion, Marty is one of the best guitar teachers I have ever
come across. Check out my review and experience him for yourself
through his YouTube channel.
Desi Serna
- When it comes to learning guitar music theory, Desi Serna is the
man. I first learned about him through his free iTunes podcast. He has
some terrific DVD and written material for intermediate and advanced players.
Justin Sandercoe - Justin is a fantastic guitar teacher covering all sorts of songs and playing techniques through his website, JustinGuitar.com. He also has an extremely popular YouTube channel, showing people step-by-step how to play load of great songs all for free.
Online Guitar Courses:
8020Guitar.com - I, along with my co-founder, have developed a free course on guitar as well as premium Beginner and Beyond Beginner
courses using the Rule of 80/20! If you focus on the 20%, you can play
more than 80% of the popular songs out there. It's a great rule to
know and I encourage you to download our free course!
Online Guitar Blogs:
Check out my list of instructional guitar blogs, with a goal of helping you to become a better player! If you know of other guitar blogs that meet this criteria, please contact me to add them to the list.
Guitars:
Ovation - I love the design and sound of Ovation guitars! This was my first guitar purchase and I still enjoy playing them. Overall, I think they are great for a beginner and not too expensive, especially if you are just starting to play
Washburn - In addition to Ovation guitars, I also really like the feel of my acoustic Washburn guitar. It has a classic feel to it and stays in tune very well. It's also a more affordable guitar, compare to the higher end models like Martin and Taylor.
Tuner:
Snark - The Snark tuner is awesome! It's small, adjustable, looks stylish and attaches to the headstock of the your guitar. With a nice, clear LED screen, it gets the job done when it comes to tuning the strings of a guitar.
Disclosure: Please note that some of the links listed are affiliate links and I will earn a commission if you decide to make a purchase. The great thing about playing guitar is that you don't need much to get started! I
recommend these offerings because they have been extremely helpful to me over the years. I hope that
they can also help you achieve your goals in learning and playing guitar.
