I decided to make a combination package that includes both "the Basics of Rock Guitar Scales Vol.2" and "the Basics of Blues Guitar Vol. 1". I've had a lot of requests from people who want to buy both my dvd's and combine the shipping. This package accompishes that. You get both of the dvd's and save on shipping. See below for details. These DVDs are professionally manufactured and are guaranteed to play on any DVD player.

Video Sample

(keep in mind that this video clip is highly compressed for the web. The video in actual DVD is clear.)

This DVD was designed for the beginning or intermediate blues guitarist in mind. I was tired of seeing guitar instructional dvd's of some incredibly fast guitar player blow though all of his licks and didn't really explain how to play the guitar. So I decided to put together a dvd that covers the basics of what you need to know to be a good solid blues guitar player. I included some of the hottest blues licks around. See below for a description of material on this dvd. Buying this dvd is like getting 6 months to 1 year's worth of guitar lessons. It's something you will be able to come back to time and time again to work on different aspects of your blues playing. Running time 70 minutes. This DVD is professionally manufactured and is guaranteed to play on any DVD player. Running time approx. 70 minutes.

Material on this dvd:

• 20 blues licks (tabs in Adobe PDF form on DVD. You can view them on your computer or print them out perfectly clear. )
• 10 blues turnarounds (tabs in Adobs PDF form on DVD. You can view them on your computer or print them out perfectly clear.)
• improv section with mp3's to jam over while viewing the scales
• scale chart
• chord chart
• 12 bar blues section showing you how to play 12 bar blues and gives you 5 different examples that you can play along with while viewing a chart at the same time

This DVD was designed for the beginning or intermediate guitarist in mind. I made this DVD because I know just how important it is to understand the theory behind what you are playing. Not understanding scales and music theory is like trying to speak another language without taking the time to learn how to pronounce the words in that language and understanding what those words mean. This DVD is going to show you how to play the scales and theory necessary to make you a better musician. See below for a description of material on this dvd. Buying this dvd is like getting year's worth of guitar lessons. It's something you will be able to come back to time and time again to work on different aspects of your playing. This DVD is professionally manufactured and is guaranteed to play on any DVD player. Running time approx. 192 minutes.
