A guitar legend
A guitarist with such experience and skill as Larry is to be admired, the knowledge you can receive from a legend like him can go a long way in understanding how to express yourself on the guitar. His lessons are understandable at all times and he makes it possible for you to expand your vocabulary, making it highly recommended to review the material.

Mr. 335 - Pure Magic!
Just an absolute pleasure to be able to learn from the great Larry Carlton. The subtleties and nuances he teaches are beyond adjectives to describe. One of my all-time favourite guitar players. A true legend and a privelige to behold. Less is more but the things you learn from Larry Carlton amass to a life's worth of knowledge and experience. Highly recommended.

Amazing!
To make good use of my quarantine, I decided to be productive and learn guitar. I found Truefire and their YouTube channel extremely helpful with their lessons and tutors being so helpful, clear, articulate and easy to follow. Larry Carltons lessons were so helpful, learnt to applya great deal of concepts in my own playing and eventually progressed by learning to incorporate new concepts, rhythms, grooves in my own playin. Looking forward for more lessons in the future, Thankyou!

The Legendary Larry Carlton, do I need to say anything else? Been a fan ever since I saw Guthrie Govan praise and play in a similar style in one of his videos on youtube and his album 'Friends' released in 1983 has one of the best Guitar playing I have ever come across. The sweet tone, touch, dynamics, has kept me in awe since the beginning. He also one of the lessons on channel on intricate concepts like using diminished scale, diminished chords, soloing over jazz rhythms and progressions and it has been the most helpful in overcoming those challenges to explore playing in different styels. Kudos!
