Okay, I bought this from one of the vendors on Amazon under the new section for about $8.00 and for that amount it was well worth it. Now I'm not really a beginner, but I haven't played in a long time and wanted to see what I can learn from it. What I really liked about it was that in the beginning the instructor talks about how to get that Metal sound from the Amp and effects, and he doesn't use or illustrates expensive guitar equipment to show you, he used items that anyone can buy at a low cost. The one thing I wish the DVD had was downloadable PDF's of the lessons. Now if you have played guitar and feel you are still pretty much a beginner this DVD is for you, but one worming...this DVD does start out slow and builds from there. All in All it's a good DVD.

Well here goes, when I started playing guitar in the 80's, all i wanted to do was learn songs, and it was usually a familiar intro or favorite solo here and there, didnt take the time or have the patience to learn how chords fit together with scales,playing in the right key etc. now that i have really got into this DVD, it is an excellent learning tool, learning notes,scales and chords by the key that I've always played but didnt take the time to get educated, was in to much of a hurry to be a "rockstar" back then and not learn the essentials, $12.00 give or take for this DVD is a steal, I would say beginners through intermediate, would get a lot out of this DVD, do yourself a favor, buy it,lock yourself in a room for the weekend, put this baby on and start jamming, wish they had quality DVD's like this back then. I have the AC/DC DVD as well, its great and the EVH is on the way Thank you Mark John Sternal, for keeping it simple and making it a blast to play/learn again. Gary P.

I'm a long-time beginner, and played mostly blues and rock, but no metal. This is a great program for beginners who want to know more about the basic "tricks" behind metal music. I love the fact that the teacher walks you through the basics on how to set your amps and special effects. He answers questions that you may feel too stupid to ask your friends local guitar shop, since we all know that sales persons in the local guitar shop specialize in that. There are several basic lessons that work you up to a simple metal song, and you can go back to those lessons and work on them later, which is great. Yes, this is very basic, but a solid program. It's a real savings if you consider how much money you would spend in lessons.

This DVD really open my mind about the basic one should now to play the metal type of music. I believe that i can actually improve myself from here to play metal sound

I was for a long time searching for a guitar book at amazon's books when this item (and others more)came out, I thought it was a book+dvd, if so I found it very cool. For my surprise I realized that it was a dvd, so no matter I'll try it, I thought... Well, I just can say this is not a good stuff if you are looking for something to help improve your skills and knowledge don't try this nor any other product from these series Easy Guitar bla bla bla, don't tell that I didn't warn you!
