Most of us who have been playing guitar forever learned how to play in one of two ways. Either we learned by listening to records, over and over again, to our parents' frustration. Or, we took guitar lessons. These guitar lessons were usually not a lot of fun, and often involved playing some three chord folk song repeatedly. A lot of people dropped out of guitar lessons in disgust, wanting only to play rock and never wanting to hear a folk song again.
If you are new to playing the guitar or you want to improve your skills, you are extremely lucky to live in a time when there are online guitar lessons. Instead of having to sit with a frumpy, old guitar teacher, you can take some of the most exciting and innovative lessons ever. The real advantage is that you can learn by playing the type of music that really excites you. If you want to seriously rock out, then take rock lessons. If you are a bit jazzier or a bit more country, then you can learn in that style, too. There are online guitar lessons for almost every kind of player, at every level.
Another advantage to online guitar lessons is that you can take them over and over again, and continue to practice the things that you just aren't getting. With a traditional guitar teacher, this is impossible since they want to continually move you forward, but if you are having trouble with something or really want to refine your technique, then you will have the ability online. In addition, online lessons are a whole lot more affordable and convenient than any teacher in your town, and people have found that when they learn more when they are able to learn online, at their own pace, in their own home.
