These free online guitar lessons are intended to help you get started, give you some new ideas, and supplement your current course of study. There is, however nothing like a good teacher! If you live in the Gig Harbor area and would like a teacher, you can reach me by email.

I recommend that beginners start with the first lesson. There is a guitar tuner there if you need one.

For those with more experience, I cannot say enough about the importance of learning the chords and practicing your scales. The level of these skills that you possess pretty much determines the level of your playing. A GUITAR PLAYER DOES NOT LIVE BY POWER CHORDS ALONE. You more advanced players, check out the "Jazz Licks". They are cool!

Come back often as there will be new guitar lessons.

If you are wanting a new guitar or amp, or just about ANYTHING in the way of music gear, I highly recommend online music stores. I bought my Les Paul online, as well as all of my sound equipment,my bass, and my recording equipment. I have found these stores to be honest and fair and to deliver high quality goods. PLUS--shipping,if not FREE, is VERY reasonable! Check them out--
