Learn and Master Guitar Review

Are you looking for professional guitar training, but don't have time for a personal tutor? Whether you are just learning to play guitar or have a few years under your belt, you have come to the right place.

We have reviewed tons of guitar training products, and only found a few to be worth while. At least two of those are extremely good: Learn & Master Guitar for those people that simply want the most professional guitar training available and Jamorama for those looking for a great training system that are on a tighter budget.

Feel free to use our reviews to find the product that best meets your needs. Hopefully you will be on your way to becoming the next Eddie Van Halen, Jimi Hendrix, or Eric Clapton if that is more your style.

We stand behind our reviews, and encourage you to contact us if you have further questions about any of the products listed here. Honestly, if you have questions about anything... please do not hesitate to email me at Support@GuitarLessonInsider.com

Learn and Master Guitar

By: Steve Krenz

Learn and Master Guitar
The Basics:
Learn & Master Guitar is by far the most comprehensive guide out there to help you learn to play the guitar. For a beginning guitarist, the program starts with the parts of the guitar and fingerings and moves on to more advanced methods and techniques. With lessons on DVD and in print form, you are able to watch the video and follow along, perfect for all learning styles. Rather than paying a monthly fee for as long as it takes you to learn, you are able to invest in the Learn & Master Guitar series, which you will have whenever you need to review a concept.  This truly is the most you can get for your money as far as a guitar course where you are able to learn at your own pace.

Pros: Visit Their Website
  - All lessons are in both DVD and written formats so you can watch the videos and follow along.
  - A large quantity of teaching aids make up Learn & Master Guitar.
  - LMG's videos are extremely high quality as are the teaching methods the instructors use.
  - Lessons are broken up into manageable pieces with just the right amount of information included so you learn gradually, with each lesson building on the previous information.
  - Lessons are extremely personalized, and you feel as though you are receiving private tutoring rather than a purchased program.
  - There is a one-time purchase price, so you know what you are getting upfront.
  - If you can’t pay the $200 upfront, a payment plan is offered through Legacy Learning– consider it an investment in your ability to play the guitar.

Cons:
  - For someone who is just starting out on the guitar, the price might be a bit intimidating, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for with Learn & Master Guitar.
  - There could be more of an online presence, but Learn & Master Guitar focuses more on their DVD series than on their online interactive tools.

Customer Support: Learn & Master Guitar offers a 60-day money back guarantee if you are dissatisfied with their product for any reason. In addition, Learn & Master Guitar comes with free online support for their students, including a hopping forum. By visiting their website, you can access archived discussion questions to get a feel for the kinds of help you are able to receive. Full access is free with your purchase of the program.

Overall Thoughts: Learn & Master Guitar is made up of just the right combination of media, narration, and teaching techniques, all included on 20 DVDs, 5 CDs (in jam-along style), 100 pages of lessons, and other supplementary materials. While the entire program isn’t accessible online, there are also a number of web-based supplementary materials as well. Learn & Master Guitar really can help someone of any age and any skill level in learning to play guitar.

Steve's course is a bit pricy, but worth it!, May 19, 2008
Reviewer: Stephanie from Iowa
4 Stars

This course is great, but very pricy.. I bought "How to Play Guitar: Everything You Need to Know to Play the Guitar" by Roger Evans for $10 on Amazon. It taught me how to string, tune, hold my guitar, play chords, and finger pick. Talk about getting your money's worth! The problem was that I was only getting so far with the book. When I went to play with some friends they notice I was developing some bad habits and putting them in my muscle memory. A tutor was way too expensive so I started looking online for guitar training dvds and found learn and master guitar. It looked perfect for me, but at $200 it better be good and last me a LONG LONG time! So far I'm up to session 5 and am finding out just how hard it is to break bad habits.. If you are thinking about learning form a book vs a dvd or tutor - think about it very hard. I would personally go with a tutor if I could afford it - but so far this course is proving to be worth it!

Learn and Master Guitar, April 13, 2008
Reviewer: Jason from Cali - US

After having played for 4 years on my own and taken several lessons from a private tutor, I wanted to take my music to the next level. Against my room mates advice I bought learn and master by steve krenz. After running through half the course in a few weeks, it is obvious that this course is not for people in the expert or professional level. Although it would be a great course for beginners and intermediate players, it seems to be a bit too fundamental for me. Don't get me wrong, steve's course rocks, it just was not for me. A bit of advice for those of you looking at this - DO NOT BUY THIS IF YOU ARE AN EXPERT GUITAR PLAYER! You are better off getting some personal lessons from a more skilled player than yourself.

Guitar Tutor Pro

By: Ryan Cameron

Learn and Master Guitar The Bottom Line: All in all, the Guitar Tutor Pro team has put together a high-quality and well-rounded program. The program teaches the guitar enthusiast some of the more "classical" methods of learning to play, focusing more on notes, tabletures, and scales, but also teaches chords - a difficult mix that works. For those users who are able to wisely manage their time, this program might be a great choice. For a program that is well designed, organized, and delivered, Guitartutorpro receives 9.3 stars out of 10 stars.
