Does anyone use truefire guitar lessons
I have recently been on their website and from what I have seen so far it appears as if this might be the way for me to go to reach that next level in my playing.

I have used them for a few lessons (David hamburger). Check out Stephan Grossman's Guitar Worshop and Homespun for lessons as well. They have great instructors and a useful app for downloading lessons for use off-line.

Seems like Truefire would be a reasonable way to add something a bit more challenging or complicated to my repertoire, like say from the likes of....
Tommy Emmanuel?

Yes, fantastic lessons, and a huge range. Well worth it IMO.
I have even engaged one of the Truefire teachers for one on one Skype lessons - Taken my guitar skills from around 15% to 80% in quick time...

I have a couple of Stefan Grossman's DVD's along with an Ernie Hawkins DVD on the playing style of Lightnin' Hopkins, which I think is quite good. I just feel that I need a more systematic approach to improving and Truefire seems to offer that.

I've been working on many courses through them. I don't quite have a consistent enough schedule to take the interactive lessons.

I spent a few bucks on this site, most of the course were worth the penny left.
But there are a few outstanding ones, like Vicki Genfan's that I find really really good : http://vickigenfan.com/?page_id=676

Thanks everyone for your responses! I plan to join the $15/mo. plan with the full access to all of the lessons. After reviewing a number of them the ones that appear to be most helpful to me would be:
David Hamburger Fingerstyle Blues Factory Vicki Genfan Acoustic Rhythm Guitar Survival Guide Muriel Anderson 1-2-3 Fingerstyle I know there are many many others but I thought these 3 would give me a good start. |

Does anyone have problems with the Truefire website? Can't seem to access it this pm. Was thinking of buying the Tommy Emanuel fingerstyle course.

I have been kicking around either true fire or jamplay. I have been for a few months. When I get a few more things under my belt I will join on. I am leaning to true fire so far. I have a whole bunch of DVDs and books I am working through now. Its good to hear positive things about them.

Thanks for the heads up on this site. I'm buried in the blues, which I love, but maybe next year if I want to go back to TE's music, now I have a place to check out.

I have tried TF here and there but don't like it as much as other online sources because I like focusing on learning complete songs. I find TF's material more "lick" and style focused.

Hi Blueser100,
Curious as to your other sources. I find that for finger style blues TF is giving me what I want at this point but I am not finding those lessons that help me with more of the folky singer/songwriter stuff. |
