Great for absolute beginners.

Bought my first guitar and about 30 courses here on truefire. My elementary education was terrible for music and I'm a very slow learner, so I got left behind at school and never actually learned anything useful. As an adult beginner with no real education, this course has been one of the most useful / accessible for me. Chris' iterative method of teaching assumes almost nothing and works on naming the notes and building mental maps between known places on the top strings and how to find the same note elsewhere on the fretboard. I have replayed the 6th string octave lesson for a couple of months now and I am finally getting into the 5th string relationships and this is 100% the right course for me on Truefire.
