Win a Dave Mustaine Guitar!

My very good friend Chris Elmore, who you will know from the great guitar 'mini-lessons' he provides for my blog and for my monthly newsletter, is holding a contest with a superb Dave Mustaine guitar as the main prize. You can actually check out the guitar at this link:

Ok, so to win this guitar, or one of the other contest prizes, Chris wants you to submit a YouTube video of yourself performing on guitar. He explains it fully in this short video clip:

How to win the Dave Mustaine Guitar

Take a look at the video clip ( about 2 mins ) - if you think you have what it takes to impress Chris, just follow the instructions on the page, and you're on your way to bringing home an awesome guitar. Please don't be shy about this - I know Chris is not necessarily looking for someone who can replicate an existing guitar riff. If you think there is anything special you can do, this is your chance to show off your talent, and maybe bag a big prize in the process.

The link to enter the contest again is: How to win the Dave Mustaine Guitar

Regular subscribers will know that Chris is absolutely the most genuine guy in the guitar learning world. As well as regularly providing great free guitar tips for my guitar newsletter readers, he sponsored some amazing prizes for my 5 million and 10 million visitor celebrations. This contest is to celebrate the release of his latest learning program - 'Rock Methods', and runners-up in the contest will receive copies of this course. I haven't had sight of this course yet ( it won't be launched for a while ) but I know that it will be up to the standard of excellence of all of the Elmore Music learning tools.

I would encourage you to take part in this contest, show the world what you can do, and hopefully, bring home that fabulous guitar!

Meanwhile, I will be adding some songs to my chords and lyrics website which will hopefully meet your requirements.

Enjoy your music,

PJ

Mastering the Fretboard using just 2 forms!

My friend Andy Koblick, the mastermind behind the Guitar5Day learning program has been working on a pretty revolutionary new course - Project X - mainly aimed at those guitar players who have plateaued ( is that a word? - ah I'm sure you know what I mean! ), and want to take their playing to another level.

He has kindly given me a video extract from this 5 DVD course for my Guitar Tips Blog subscribers.

The lesson shows how it is possible to achieve mastery of your fretboard using just two of the forms from the traditional CAGED system. Certainly food for thought, check it out at the link below:

If you're intrigued, and you think this may be the key you've been waiting for to unlock your potential, check out the website, Andy has also very kindly offered my readers a $30 discount on the course, if you click on the link below:

Explore the world of Chords

Chris Elmore, creator of the ElmoreMusic series of guitar lessons and resources, and my partner in the GuitarBackingTracks project, has once again supplied a short, but very useful lesson for my Blog, which should be of help to all learning guitarists.

Chris has been a top guitarist for years, and has brought all of his experience and learning to the table in passing on his knowledge with the ElmoreMusic ( click the link for more info ) set of lessons. His GuitarTips course covers playing chords, arpeggious etc, but he has created an article showing my Blog readers how these techniques are related and how to be creative with working out neat arpeggios from chord sequence - and vice-versa! . Check out this guitar tip at the link below:

Chris Elmore - Explore the world of chords


BTW, Chris has offered a great deal to my Blog readers - lifetime subscription to his fantastic Guitar Tips learning program for an unbelievable $27 ( it was already a steal at $49.95 ).
Just click on the special link below:

14 Minute Video Guitar Chords lesson

I have been singing the praises of Dan Denleys guitar courses - AmazingGuitar, BluesGuitar, LeadGuitar and AcousticGuitar for some time now. The link to the Acoustic course has been displaying "Sold Out" for some weeks now, but it is being relaunched tomorrow, Fri 14th March at 11 a.m. Eastern time. To celebrate the relaunch, Dan has given me a POWERFUL, 14 minute free video lesson crammed with incredible info about guitar CHORDS to share with my Blog readers. In this video you'll discover:

-> How chords are related to scales...

-> Why some chords are maj, minor, dom, etc.

-> What guitarists mean when they say... "two
chord" or "five chord" etc.

-> Which chords come from the major scale

-> The difference between a triad and a 7th
chord...

...and a LOT more.

You can watch it here right now:

14 Minute Guitar Chords Lesson - From Dan Denley's AcousticGuitarSecrets course

This video shows extracts of Dan's Acoustic Guitar Secrets course,
which is fast becoming THE standard for learning acoustic guitar.
The course completely sold out when it was released back in December,
hence the unavailable message you will have seen if you clicked the
link recently.

Now, *finally* it's going to be available again, remember it's
tomorrow: Fri, Mar 14 at 11AM (eastern).

Oh - and you can also download this video and watch on your iPod.
Just look for the "iPod" link.

I own a copy of this course, and it has done more to improve my
guitar playing than anything I've tried in the past 20 years.
Seriously. I would strongly advise anyone who REALLY wants to be
a "Guitar Player" to grab a copy of the course, you won't regret
it. But get in early, I have a feeling that the "Sold Out" signs
will be back up fairly soon, also Dan is making noises about
splitting the course into 3 seperate courses, which will almost
certainly increase the cost.

Either ways, you can enjoy the free 14-minute video lesson at:

More song chords from me very soon!!

Enjoy your music!
