FAQ - GUITAR
My
method is teaching chords and songs. This gets my students playing a song
literally from the very first lesson. Along with every lesson, I provide sheets
which have songs written out in a way that is clear, easy to learn and will
sound professional if followed. I do not teach conventional music notes (called
the “staff” with symbols, circles and lines) which take much longer to learn.
The idea is for students to use these sheets as a guide to learn the song,
which in turn trains their ear to get used to chord patterns and how different
types of songs work. This makes the learning process quick and user friendly,
unlike the more difficult and time-consuming study of mastering the reading of
music notes. By following this method, my students are able to play full songs
in a very short time. Students who are more musical may actually start figuring
out songs on their own!
The lessons are geared toward regular guitar. That said, all of
the information you learn for regular guitar is used on electric guitar as
well, so you are actually learning skills for both at once. I do play and teach
electric guitar and it is possible that we will add even more advanced lessons
for students who want to take their electric and/or acoustic guitar playing to
the max.
Yes! (See below
how you can tell if your guitar is working well enough to use for the lessons.)
The Lesson duration varies. Sometimes, it can be just a few
short minutes. However, some information takes more time to explain and to
describe how to do. Some lessons are 10-20 minutes (or more!). I’m really
focused on giving over specific material in each lesson rather than the
duration of the lesson. The most important thing is the amount of time
the student spends practicing over the week. That is where the
real growth occurs!
First
of all, if you suspect that your guitar has problems, bring it to a music store
to have it looked over. Learning on a bad guitar can be impossible and may make
you give up!
Generally,
if you have a working guitar, there is no need to get another one. However, here
are some basic “must”s for your guitar:
1: It
must have all 6 strings on it. (NOTE: Strings are easily replaced. You do
not need a new guitar just because strings are frayed or snapped. A
music store can replace them for you.
2: The
knobs at the end of the guitar which turn to make the strings tighter and
looser (called tuning machines) must work (these are also easily
repaired/replaced at a music store if need be. But if they charge too much to
fix it, you might as well get the guitar I told you about above).
Unfortunately not – due to security and ease of sharing the videos are strictly not downloadable. We also have a USB option that does not require any internet connection. Please email music@basslinepro.com for more info.
You have access to your video lessons only as long as you are a member. It is recommended to print out all your material and keep it organized in a loose-leaf. This you would keep forever (as you would by in person music lessons). If necessary, we can create a freeze plan which gives you access to all your past lessons for a low fee of $10/ month.
