The Advantages Of Using Video Guitar Lessons

By Juliette Cruz


Being able to play an instrument is a very satisfying experience. Many people have the benefit of the opportunity to get instruction from someone they know. It could be family or it could be friends who have the time to give. Others will have to pay for lessons in order to learn. Video guitar lessons have been used by thousands of guitarists to learn everything they know. They may be the answer you have been looking for to learn on your own.

There are some things that are well-suited to learn from a book. We all do it at one point or another, such as when we are in school. Using books and pamphlets to learn to play an instrument is an entirely different situation. The flat illustrations just cannot convey the correct procedures for holding the instrument so they cannot compare to using the instruction you can receive from videos.

In order to play an instrument you must hold it correctly. Having a three-dimensional representation of the instructor holding the instrument with the proper finger placement while demonstrating how to play it goes far above any other method. Most individuals will learn something a lot quicker if it is demonstrated to them by another person than they will by any other method.

As you already know music is sound. The best way to present both visual and audio instruction is through videos. The instructors can demonstrate how to hold and play the instrument so that the student can copy what they see. The videos also give the audio example of what they are supposed to replicate. They will know quickly whether or not what they are doing sounds like the instructor.

Printed instruction uses flat dots on black and white diagrams to show finger placement. Since it cannot teach the proper technique the student is left guessing exactly how they're supposed to place their fingers. Watching another person play allows the student to see exactly what they are supposed to do. Learning the proper techniques is the key to being able to play with success.

Once you pay for videos you do not have to pay again unless you purchase more advanced instruction. Paying for lessons can get quite expensive particularly for the absolute beginner. Compare the cost of instructional videos to several months of personal training at your local music store and you'll see what a bargain they really are.

Usually guitar lessons are not given in a one-on-one setting. Students are generally taught in groups of four or five so that the instructor can have at least a little time for correcting each student. Since there are several people in the room at once it is possible that a student would not get the personal attention they need. With videos you can start and stop the instruction anytime you like and watch it as many times as needed. It will never get tired of repeating itself.

Video guitar lessons are available for all levels of experience. You can pick your current instructional level so that you can learn more with the series. They are not limited to a certain genre of music so once you get accomplished with the basics you can go on wherever you like.
