Jimi Hendrix
Become a Guitar God with Youtube
The internet is a truly wonderful resource. Young people today, growing up with easy access to the world's knowledge via the internet, have no idea of how lucky they are.
I've been playing guitar for well over thirty years having started out with the classic Bert Weedon's 'Play in a Day' book, way back in the 1970's. I could never afford guitar lessons so I would take every opportunity to obsessively study the playing techniques and styles of every guitarist I managed to see.
Learning to play guitar today has been transformed by technology. DVDs, for example, can be played over and over again, unlike face to face guitar lessons. And the internet is the most ideal way to distribute and deliver some fantastic guitar tutorials.
While there are many guitar tuition websites by far my favourite resource is Youtube. You can find instructional videos on everything from choosing guitars to making your own electric guitar. There are videos for every level of learner from beginner through to old guys like me who want to learn a few new tunes and techniques.
Learning some new techniques, tunes and licks has become my favourite hobby. If the weather is bad then you will generally find me learning a new tune or two from Youtube. I can safely say that I have learned more from the internet over the past five years than I learned from books and from watching other guitarists in the preceding twenty years.
Another useful feature is that the system is interactive. When I find a video that I like I will always make it one of my favourites and maybe drop the performer a comment to say thanks. I will often ask a question or two and the video maker will generally come back with a helpful answer. It's a bit like having every online guitarist in the world available as a personal guitar playing consultant.
These days I find myself feeling a little bit envious of the young people learning guitar with all these great resources available to them. I like to fantasise that if I had been learning to play using all of these excellent resources who knows, I might have become the next Eric Clapton.
