Innovative Electric Lessons On The Internet

By Zeb King


I believe that any guitar player would really love to take lessons from Slash or Dave Navarro and now they can with the wonder of the internet. Advanced guitar lessons online are not only free but they feature some of the best guitar players in the business. On a clip on www.youtube.com, Dave Navarro, previous lead guitar player of the Red Hot Chili Peppers joins George Lynch, guitar god from Lynch Mob in showing some advanced guitar tuition for the public. Navarro has an internet show called Spread TV and he has different guests each week from the rock 'n roll world. With George Lynch they discuss intricate guitar licks and different techniques about how to start a rock guitar lesson .

In another episode of Spread TELEVISION, also available on You Tube, Dave Mustaine, the great guitar player for Mettalica, shows Dave the proper way to play "spider chords". Spider chords were created by Dave Mustaine ,or so he claims, and he has used them in bands like Metallica and Megadeath to excellent effect and to form some of the most memorable licks in history.

There is a great clip available on youtube featuring the great Neal Schon of Journey fame teaching how to play the great song "Lights". For advanced guitar lessons this one is neat because it shows close ups of his fingering technique on the guitar neck. The bad part is that he does not stop and explain the parts. If you are an exceedingly advanced player you won't have much difficulty duplicating his moves, but it would still be useful to hear some commentary, even if it is merely a little. Lots of these guitar guys don't like to explain their moves and many of the clips are like this.

There are some great Slash (Guns 'n Roses) clips available on the Internet. One of the finest educational videos is an exceedingly short video clip where he shows ,not teaches, the proper way to play the intro to "Paradise City", one of Guns 'n Roses biggest world hits. There are a lot more famous guitar players on you tube but you have to search through lots of junk in order to find them. If you are insistent you'll find some gems though, like the guitar musician from the Red Hot Chili Peppers who has posted plenty of advanced guitar lessons of his own on there.

The accomplished guitar player John Mayer shows the easiest way to play some great guitar riffs on his video show subsidized by Guitar World, "How to Shred". There's also a great video on there by the legendary jazz guitar player Larry Carlton, who has recorded with true greats such as Steely Dan and many, many others.

For advanced guitar training there are some great DVDs available as well and it's easy to get those online or at your local Guitar Center store or your local music supply store.
