"GuitarTricks.com is hands-down the best online resource for learning to play the guitar!"
So far I've only gotten through the Fundamentals part 1 but I will say that your customer service and easy UI is awesome!
I was going to spend a hundred bucks on some other learning DVD but when I saw your site I was very intrigued and after spending some time reviewing it, it was a no-brainer.
Good job over there!"

Nice job!!

"FINALLY a very well developed curriculum!"
I am 56 years old and have recently picked up the guitar again after picking at it while a High School student. Not much experience other than playing chords.
I decided to write this note in appreciation for your outstanding effort in the beginner course you led for GT and which I decided to take from the beginning. I thought that although I already play many chords without a problem that there could be a tip here and there that I could pick up. Man, WAS I WRONG, I ended up FINALLY coming across a very well developed curriculum, something I find lacking in many programs. I should know, I also have a Masters degree and taught both at college and secondary school. I know what a well develop curriculum looks like. I learned many things either overlooked or not known by many other instructors. I came across GT, unfortunately for me after spending quite a bit of money on other courses, books, CD's, and DVD's. The chapter on Barre Chords was specially enlightening to me as it did not stop at just showing you how to play an F and G chord but actually went through the construction of the chords and its application down the fretboard.
I normally do not comment on most things, but you sir and GT deserve a very enthusiastic Well Done!
Thank you both so much. I look forward in continuing following your lessons with enthusiasm."
-- Franklyn Suliveres, Sarasota, Florida U.S.A.
"I already have several favorite teachers!"
I am a beginner/novice, and particularly appreciate the ability to view different teachers and learn from their various styles.
I already have several favorite teachers, and I enjoy practicing their tutorials over and over (and over and over). This is one of the great aspects of your site, that I am able to repeat a lesson as often as necessary.
I also want to compliment you on the upgrade to your flash video player; it makes looping a section much easier, and the keyboard shortcuts are greatly appreciated.
I just wanted to let you know I think you are doing a great job, and I look forward to learning much more in the coming year."
-- Jean Martin, East Haddam, CT.
"I can't believe what I am now doing!"
I would recommend your service to anybody who is serious about playing and enjoying themselves doing it! "
-- Bill Bertalan
"My brother was better than me until I found your site!"
I'm from the UK but living in Dubai in the UAE for more than 20 years, which has taken me away from folk nights and half decent music shops of the UK... My brother plays also and he lives in the UK. Thanks to technology we can generally share a few guitar sessions over the web cam!! Great stuff..... but we're just about at the same level.. well actually he was better than me until I found your site! LOL... now he's wondering where I get it from.. I'll keep him guessing for a while.. .but guess you will have another new member soon enough!!!
Many thanks."
-- Christine G., Dubai, UAE
"Now if I could just get some sleep!"
I have really been struggling for about 10 months now, but in two nights with Guitar Tricks I already have a better grasp on my learning. Thank you very much.
Now if I could just quit practicing and get some sleep!"

"This site should be of immense help for thousands of people out there for whom playing"
through the Beginner's guide.
I first tried tuning the guitar and I was curious to check out your
Guitar Tuning problems section to see if it has any extra help. And I find it amazing.
You wouldn't believe I've been tuning my guitar the usual way for endless years and this is the first time in my life I figured out that I'm actually tuning closer to the fourth fret like it says in the First part of your article.
The difference in sound is so subtle that I wouldn't have been able to identify if without the method you have given there!
I'm hoping I'd be able to achieve my dream of playing guitar with
the lessons on your site!
Thank you very much for such a site and I hope you would continue to post high quality lessons to people like me for whom learning to play the guitar is a huge passion!
Cheers!"
Dayavanth Emmanuel, India
"THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FOR FOR HELPING US REGULAR FOLKS IMPROVE AND MOST OF ALL HAVE FUN! AGAIN!!!"
I have never played metal and it took me a couple of days to get the rythym, etc down..but after a LOT of practice its starting to come along. Thanks for sharing, I really mean that. This is by far the best learning site i have ever had the pleasure to learn from.
...its only a matter of time before I get the hang of the timing
for this kinda music.
You have kinda opened a different door for me. I am looking forward to your new lesson...I have played around with a few of your lessons and they have made an impression on me. I just keep practicing and those doors and starting to open..
Thanks again, keep on rockin'"
David Ostrander, Bastrop, Texas, U.S.A.
"No guitar teacher would have the patience!"
I've been playing guitar for many years.
I've bought books, books with CDs, guitar magazines, private lessons, on-line lessons and nothing comes close to the
variety and usefullness that's available on your website. The tutorials are "bite sized" and multi-media. I can't do much with a whole book of Jimi Hendrix tab. (I've tried.) I need a series of little steps - clear, slow, and well explained that I can replay as many times as I'd like.
Guitartricks is visual, audio, verbal, musical. I'll watch a lesson video a few times and just listen and get the feel...
Then I'll watch some more and just watch the fingers. No guitar
teacher would have the patience for the scrutiny and repetition I'm into with Guitartricks. Thanks for putting it together.
Rock on."
Bryan from Eugene, OR U.S.A
"Great teaching techniques!"

"So Glad that I Signed Up!"
I WAS taking private lessons for the past year. I am so pleased that Guitar Tricks is now my primary source for learning how to play and jam on my guitar! I'm always reluctant to join anything based on the credibility of the reviews, however I'm so glad that I did! Thank you!!"
Tim Gauthier from Providence, Rhode Island
"A Very Happy Customer!"
being a total beginner when I first logged on to being able to play guitar.
The site is so comprehensive and caters for people who have no clue about
guitar. I feel like I have had such an advantage over people going to
lessons because for a fraction of the cost I was able to take lessons every
day.
Thank you very much for everything. It's been an absolute pleasure.
A very happy customer!

"It's A Pleasure To Be Part of GuitarTricks!"
Thank you for having me on the site! :) I have played guitar for roughly a year now (teaching myself mostly from either youtube, or any books I could get my hands on). I must say, that I have learned a ton with guitartricks, just in just the past two days! I no longer have to search youtube for information; everything is all laid out on the page in front of me with guitartricks!
Thank you for being so proactive, and taking such good care of your members. It's a pleasure to be part of the guitartricks family!

Now, I'm back at it and thanks to you I finally feel I am learning how to play. Lots of fun - and hard work! - thanks to you. Just fabulous!"
Christian Simon - Tarragona, Spain
""WOW" that's all I can say!"
I was so impressed that I decided to keep the account, which I'm planning to use to teach my 8 year old son. I'm also going through all the different levels to see if I've missed anything on my years of self-teaching. My wife also likes your site. She wants to start learning to play the guitar and having a membership is a great investment.
Thanks for making some great improvements to the site!

Olaf from The Netherlands
"Really enjoyed the variety of music!"
for around 5 months. I purchased e media guitar method, highly gloated
about on the web and in guitar magazines. I am really bored of strumming
chords and playing songs I really don't like. It's an insult to my hagstrom
sweede. I really enjoy the variety of music in the beginner lessons you
have. I skipped over the beginner 1 chord section but enjoy the melodies
and the scales as well. Thanks again for saving me from boredom."
Danny O'Connor from Calgary

I stumbled upon this site on accident and found it to be too good to be true. I decided to give you guys a try, and paid the $14.99 fee. I have learned so much in a week that I am flabbergasted! This, my friend, is the greatest thing since the invention of Starbucks!"

As an airline pilot being able to access the lessons from home and hotels is just fantastic. So far I have used them on 4 continents in less than a month. I cannot say how happy I am to give you my 11 bucks a month instead of the instructor who wanted 40 an hour. Everyone I meet when traveling gets a recommendation for your site from me. Nothing in life is perfect, but this is definitely the best!!!"
