Learning an instrument isn't easy and requires dedication and commitment, GT and other subscription sites give you a proven structured approach to learning plus a huge library of lessons from multiple instructors on other techniques for the instrument along with licenced song lessons for a very reasonable cost compared to private 1 on 1 lessons.

The website is clear and easy to navigate so I'm sure if you spend a bit more time having a good look around it you'll find lots of useful stuff here.

Impressively well stated, fuzzb0x.

Many don't understand that It takes effort, discipline and dedication to play guitar. Sooner or later a structured approach is mandatory.

I believe it's easier for some more than for others but not easy for anybody and for years I've had the Chet Atkins quotation below for my Forum Signature. To paraphrase Robert Earl Keen, 'the road goes on forever, the journey never ends.'
