Default I like the Shut Up and Play guy

He pretty much does that, beginning each lesson with him playing what you'll learn. Some folks drone on and on and on about the song before they ever play a note.

Default Rick Beato!

If you would like to go to The Berklee School of Music, but can't afford the $30,000 a year tution fee (...2016 prices), then top of your list should be Rick Beato's channel and products. Not only will you improve your guitar skills, but you'll also get a grounding in music, ear training and theory.

You will go from "Doe-ray-me" to quartal harmony to full-fat movie scoring.

Did I mention ear training? This is what can be achieved after 15 months tuition.

Well, there is (UC) Berkeley in California, and then there is Berklee in Boston. It is Berklee that the earlier post was referring to.

I meant Berklee, sorry for the confusion... Auto correct I guess...

Default She's TWO years old and can't even read!

It's never too early...or too late to learn. All you need is a good teacher.

I have lately been watching a lot of Andy's "Shut Up and Play" videos. His versions are very accurate and he is a great instructor, especially if you're interested in learning something about the artists and the recordings he covers.
Andy's great!

I'm starting to have flashbacks of little tiny Chinese kids playing great big guitars...

On a more positive note, there's been some great sites mentioned already, and I've used a few of them...

But if you're not familiar with Tom Strahle's lessons, or Jonathan Kehew at his "Song Bike" site, they're both outstanding, too...

Justinguitar, no contest. (surprised he's only been mentioned once so far in this thread.)

He has his own site, of course, but plenty of it is available on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/results?sear...y=justinguitar

Hands down, my favorite. This guy can REALLY play, and I mean spot on. His teaching technique, combined with his production quality, audio and video, to me, is unparalleled. And his catalogue is extensive.
