Combining the best instructional tools for learning guitar in one course.
Known as the most complete course available for learning guitar, it is the winner of the Acoustic Guitar Magazine ‘Players' Choice’ Award, two Telly Awards, and an AEGIS Award for Excellence in Education. Includes 10 DVDs filmed in high definition with over 40 hours of instruction, 5 Jam-Along CDs, 100+ page lesson book, and unlimited access to the online student support site. For all skill levels.
The Gibson name has stood for superior quality in musical instruments for decades now. With Gibson's Learn & Master Guitar, taught by guitar pro Steve Krenz, that tradition of excellence continues.
The Alternatives
If you have looked online for guitar courses, you have probably seen a lot of thirty-minute "Learn Guitar Overnight" videos. Your instincts tell you that these will not work. For someone who really wants to learn to play guitar, Gibson's Learn & Master Guitar provides a series of video guitar lessons that will take you from any skill level, even a total novice, through to advanced levels.
Not a beginner guitarist? That's OK. Skim through the basics and jump into the more advanced training. Learn more about using the course as an intermediate player..
Lesson books alone, with no detailed video instruction, can be confusing. Using software-based instruction chains you to your computer and is difficult to use. Private guitar instruction is pricey, inconvenient, and depends on finding the perfect teacher. An average weekly guitar lesson will cost you $2,000 per year plus all that driving!
DVD Demonstration
Over 40 hours of instruction on 10 DVDs filmed in high definition. These are the heart of Gibson's Learn & Master Guitar. Each lesson is clearly explained and demonstrated, so you know exactly what and how to practice. The videos were recently awarded two Telly awards for excellence in the categories of Education and Use of Music.
Lesson Book
No one wants to practice along with a video all of the time! Gibson's Learn & Master Guitar Lesson Book contains all of the songs and exercises demonstrated in the video lessons, as well as several more, so you can continue practicing at your own pace for as long as you need before moving on to the next lesson.
Jam-along Guitar CDs
This is where the fun comes in! These five CDs allow you to "jam along" with an actual band, using the very same songs you'll be learning in your lessons. There's no better way to learn than by playing, and there's no way to play that's more fun than jamming with a band. You'll be amazed at how much more fun this makes your practice time! Your friends and family will be impressed, too, at how soon you'll be playing such amazing music!
Professional Guitar Instruction
Gibson's Learn & Master Guitar gives you a rare opportunity to study from a real pro. Steve Krenz has been playing professionally for twenty years. He is not only a truly masterful player with a very impressive bio, but also an incredibly talented teacher and communicator. You won't find a better guitar instructor anywhere. And because it has the Gibson and Learn & Master name, you know the training quality is of the highest caliber.
