Thanks Bruce, I've found the pace of your videos and teaching style really enjoyable. Also appreciate all the detailed extra documents that came with the Jazz course.

Where are tabs?

The For Beginner course has good parts, slow and detailed. But I have no idea why he didn`t add tabs. If someone is a beginner it is far easier to learn from tabs. Seriously, I don`t understand. Very frustrating and ruins the course. He should have made a beginner course easier, not harder.

Thanks Bruce!

Bruce’s course on physiology has been a huge help for me. I have a previously injured index finger in my fretting hand that finds me putting my wrist into awkward positions a lot. On top of that, I tend to grip the guitar neck like it’s a the only thing keeping me afloat after abandoning a sinking ship. Well, working through Bruce’s course and going back to review it has all led to me being in a lot less pain and to having better, smoother technique.

Great insight

The first thing about this course that was helpful for me was the realization of little nuances of how how I hold the guitar whether sitting or standing. The importance of wrist position when playing notes right and left hand technique's for picking, strumming, and bending the course helped my playing for longevity and control over notes bending. A great course to take a look at the bad habits we are normally not conscious of.
