Use Youtube as a Free Online Guitar Tutor

The internet is a wonderful and magnificent thing. 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. In those days I couldn’t afford guitar lessons so I would watch guitarists very closely at every opportunity.

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.

There are loads of guitar playing teaching websites but by far the best for me is Youtube. You can find instructional videos on everything from choosing guitars to making your own electric guitar. There are plenty of videos that will help those who are just starting out with the guitar and lots more that are ideal for people like me, who’ve been playing for a while but want to learn more techniques and tunes.

Learning some new techniques, tunes and licks has become my favourite hobby. Often when its raining I’ll stay indoors and learn a new tune or two from Youtube. Its safe to say that my guitar playing has progressed more in the past five years, thanks to Youtube, than it did in the previous 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 often drop the performer a note 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 can’t help but feel a little jealous of the young people who are just starting to play guitar. I like to think that if I’d been born later, at a time when all of these great learning resources were available, I’d have been playing better than Eric Clapton by now.
