![]() I really like the blues section of the software, since that is what I most want to play. I hardly recognize any of the songs at the end of the chapters either that it suggests you try to learn. I generally just run through it once and move on. When you don't know the song it sort of makes it feel like you're just practicing strumming patterns and chord changes. My only complaint is the majority of the songs are incredibly boring to play, especially at the beginning with all the folk songs (I'm not a fan of tom waitts or bob dylan). It's enabled me to go at my own fast pace as I grasp the basics of chords, strumming patterns and how they can be used in songs. I like having the video feature that shows you the material and allows you to play along with the "instructor". It teaches it in a way that you can grasp pretty quickly. This has been really helpful at getting me through the problem areas I have and now its become pretty easy. The reality is nothing can replace a good private instructor. I bought this guitar software with a bit higher hopes than I should have. Some people might like the simplicity of this product,but I found it a big let down,Not enough songs, no full modern songs, no book I also thought that it would have a download facility so that you could expand the song vocbulary. IT appears that if you want to learn the other techniques you have to invest in at least another 4 dvds and I dont think that this product is any where near the cost it should be.Too expensive for what it is. the style you would want to learn as a young person wanting to join a band are not even mentioned. It does have a metonome and chord finder but it seems to me that everything is based around acoustic guitar so techniques such as hammer ons, pulloffs, bends. It does do 70 songs, but they are all small simple songs like Frere Jacques (3 Times), drunken sailor, etc not what is advertised on box such as Rolling Stones, where you would expect songs like, satisfaction, paint it black. My problem is that there is no book to accompany this dvd, but what is more upsetting is the fact that it advertise over 7o songs in tabulature form. don't get me wrong, you do need this knowledge and it is explained ok. Unfortuanatly all have found is the simple basics explained.
