Great!

There are a number of guitar teachers who want to dig a little deeper in their choice of songs. Matthew Lee is one of them. He is a breathtaking guitarist in the Country, Blues and Rock genre and a clearly intelligible teacher. With these separate parts of the song you can only grow in developing your guitar playing. The song is taught at every level, even a beginner can hit all the chords and get into the song faster. The backing tracks are taught at every level and since everything is easy to follow, you'll be in the wonderful world of modern country smoothness before you know it. Never thought what this Beer Thirty would bring about. There is a chord level to start with then you get two boogie rhythm levels to learn and then a steaming solo guitar part. It's a fantastic driving song that you will have a lot of fun with! Very clear and understandable instruction. Very successful!

Fun song, great teacher

A real crowd pleasing song, "Beer Thirty" also presents some unique learning opportunities in both rhythm and lead. Matthew anticipates where the tricky parts will be and provides mnemonic devices to help remember the parts, providing just enough detail to make the song sound correct and professional without overwhelming the learner at any stage. As with the other song lessons, I recommend running through the easy part just to learn the song's form. Then you're ready to tackle the more advanced content. Highly recommended.
