Ultimate Christian Guitar Course. Learn And Master Guitar.

Steve Krenz and company kindly lent me a copy of the Learn And Master Guitar course. It’s an impressive package consisting of 10 well-produced DVDs, 5 Jam Track CDs and a lesson book. Twenty very well planned guitar lessons are presented in a natural learning curve. As I watched the videos and read through the lessons, I was impressed with Steve’s clear presentation of the information. I appreciated the graphics and the cutaways. I thought his examples were well chosen. But I felt that this course wasn’t for everyone. This course is perfect for someone I was thinking, but who? Then it dawned on me! This is the ultimate guitar course for someone whose goal is to play in the church band.
Learn And Master Guitar is for serious students. There’s easily a year’s worth of study material here. It’s going to take real discipline and stick-to-it-ness to get the most out of this package. Steve introduces you to written guitar music in the second lesson and that remains a part of each of the subsequent lessons. Upon ‘graduation’ as it were, you would be ready to join a band on stage and feel comfortable reading charts. You would be able to represent different styles on the guitar including Jazz. You’d be able to take a solo and have an idea of why it was a good one.
If you knew now, that someday you would become a session guitarist- accomplished in a wide variety of styles and able to read music- then Learn And Master Guitar would be an excellent choice to get you started.
I guess what I’m trying to say is that this isn’t your ‘Get me to the Van’s Tour’ guitar course.
Learn And Master Guitar would also be an excellent choice for anyone teaching group guitar lessons–watching a lesson as a group and then having the instructor help the student’s get through it. The course is thorough and well thought out. Each lesson builds on the previous one. I could compare it to a semester of college level guitar curriculum.
Along with the meat and potatoes- chords, power chords, jazz chords. fingerstyle guitar, pentatonics, blues progressions etc. Steve includes enough extras to keep things spicy including, for instance, sliding, bends, hammer-ons, chicken pickin’ and jazz octaves.
The Jam Along CDs provide a great way to master each lesson before moving on to the next.
If your approach to guitar is to become an ‘all around’ guitarist, capable of handling just about anything that could be thrown at you on the gig, Learn And Master Guitar is just what you’ve been looking for.
