THE BEST TRUEFIRE COURSES
I use The Guitar Lesson Companion method book series in my teaching studio on Capitol Hill, because when students have a solid understanding of the fundamentals, they can work through almost any intermediate/advanced level book or video lesson they discover.
I've been a fan of TrueFire for many years because they put out high quality education videos that expand on many of concepts I teach my students in different genres. The site can be a bit overwhelming because there are thousands of lessons, so I've picked out some of my favorites below. (If you find there are just too many good ones, you can sign up for an All Access Membership, which you can get for a month, year, or lifetime.)
