I’ve been tuning into several guitar tutorial channels on YouTube lately, including those by Brandon Deon, Paul Davids, and Sammy G. Each instructor promotes their own online program, making it difficult for me to decide which one offers genuine value. Has anyone taken these courses and can share whether they truly improve guitar skills?
hey, ive tried paul davids course and it was pretty solid for me, but honestly its about your style. maybe peek at free lessons first then decide. not all courses work the same for every1
Hey Mia_79Dance, I know exactly what you mean about so many options and trying to figure out what really works for you. I recently spent a couple of months trying out an online course that wasn’t one of the big names but ended up coming away surprised at how hands-on it was with interactive exercises. It really helped me pick up not only chords and strumming patterns, but also offered tips on refining technique. I’m curious though, what kind of music are you leaning towards? I think even though a course is labeled as “all kinds”, sometimes some niche classes help build the skills that are relevant to your style better. Anyone else ever switch between courses or combine lessons that seem to offer different strengths? Would love to hear your thoughts!
Having tried a few different approaches over the last few years, I found that success largely depends on your individual learning tempo rather than the program itself. For example, I experimented with an online course recommended by another community member that focused on step-by-step progressions and found it immensely helpful for building muscle memory and technique. I suggest comparing available free lessons first, as they provide a practical sense of how structured the paid content is and whether it fits your learning style.
hey, i tried some lessions from marckonline and found it lit for building basics. i think experimenting with free clips to see if u vibex with the teaching style is key. practice beats big brands any day.
